Switching the onions and the beans doesn't make that much of a difference. As for pepper, you could always use it in very modest amounts. With the jalepenos, there are mild sweet ones as well as spicy ones. I would definately cut down some of the liquid in that recipe, it called for a LOT.

1 tsp of chili is nothing......when I make chili I use at least 1/4 cup of chili powder. And that's a guesstimate.....I usually just upend the container and season to taste and color. Male sure to use chili POWDER, not PEPPER....there's a difference!

And yeah, that is waaaaay too much water. Next time, leave the water out completely, there should be ample liquid from the tomatoes and beans, provided the beans are canned.

I keep my chili recipe simple.....tomatoes, either crushed or pureed, kidney beans, hamburger and spices.....onion, garlic and chili powder. If it gets too hot or spicy, I toss in some sliced green peppers, they seem to take the fire out. That's it.......heat to a boil, and you can do it in the crock pot on high, and once it boils, let it go for 30 minutes, then turn it off and let it rest for about an hour. Turn back on low, and eat whenever. You can actually eat it once the beans are cooked after the boil stage, but the longer it cooks, the better it tastes.....especially the 2nd, 3rd or 4th day.

My recipe will work with ground turkey or chicken, and I cook and drain the meat first, then add it to the rest of the ingredients. I just use hamburger becaus it downs't brake down like turkey or chicken does....I like my chili thick and chunky.

agreed on the too much water. i don't add any, though if i think there's not enough liquid, i will rinse out the tins with either water, a bit of wine or broth and dump that in. ground lamb is good in chili too, as is ground kangaroo. kangaroo is very flavourful, but very dry, so if i'm using it, i'll add some hamburger or cook it off in a bit of olive oil.

I'm going to cut out the water, or at least so much of it. And try it again next time , with the correct ingredients, like the onion it called for, not green onions. black ground table pepper burns my mouth, and is unpleasant to me, i am that sensitive to spice. but maybe i could eat a small amount of chili powder and it wno't bother me, if it does i can always take an antacid.

Tftb,

This is not a criticism but as has been pointed out, you made chili without the chili...which is probably why it tasted nothing at all like chili.

Your recipe only calls for 1 teaspoon.
That is just a little.
I think probably what you don't like is too much chili.

So, try it again with the chili next time.

Chili powder is not just chili pepper but usually a mix of herbs and spices including some oregano (finely ground) and cumin and often some garlic and salt.

If you used dried beans instead of canned you need more water.

I recommend that for recipes from the internet, you chose either professional sources, such as the Food Network, or allrecipes, where you can read the reviews of other users, who would have told you that the recipe called for way too much liquid.

Also, boneless, skinless chicken does not do well in the crockpot. It's also the most expensive cut. Don't you have turkey in the freezer? If a turkey leg will fit in your crockpot, that would be perfect for this recipe.

Sorry this didn't turn out :(

The best chef I know personally told me never be afraid to experiment - that's how you learn.

Thank you. At least it wasn't a complete waste, like some meals can be, like when my mom completely burnt stuff to a crisp and we couldn't eat it lol.

I told Daddy one night i needed chicken an the store he went to, all they had was boneless skinless, so that's what he got. We normally don't get it. I was joking with a friend i should have told my dad, hey dad can you go butcher a chicken? I want chicken tonight. Because we raise chickens for eggs and meat, however he's not ready to butcher some of our chickens yet.

Roasted Butternut Squash & Parsnip Salad

Servings: 4-6

Ingredients:

3 cups Peeled, cubed (½") butternut squash
1 cup Peeled Sliced Parsnips, uniform slices approximate size of squash pieces
4 Tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil, divided
¼ tsp Sea Salt, divided
¼ tsp Freshly Ground Black Pepper, divided
1 Tbsp Red Wine Vinegar
¼ cup Paper-thin Slices Red Onion
1 clove Garlic, cut into paper-thin slices
½ tsp Dried Oregano
⅛ – ¼ tsp Dried Red Pepper Flakes
4 Large Sage Leaves, halved

Directions:

Heat oven to 450 degrees. Place squash and parsnip pieces on a baking sheet. Drizzle with 2 Tablespoons of the olive oil, 1/8 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Toss together and move coated pieces into a single layer. Place in oven and roast for 15 minutes, or until squash and parsnips are just tender; do not overcook. While vegetables are roasting, stir together the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, remaining 1/8 teaspoon salt and pepper, vinegar, red onion, garlic, oregano, pepper flakes, and sage leaves in a serving bowl; stir to blend. When vegetables are done, gently stir into olive oil mixture in bowl to coat and serve immediately. Sage leaves can be removed, if desired. The salad is served warm, but is also sturdy enough to sit for several hours on a buffet table. Do not refrigerate.

FWIW whenever a recipe calls for water I always substitute the water with some form of broth instead. It works especially well for liquidy roasts and any form of chicken cooked in liquid. Adds tons more flavor to the dish. For chicken I will sometimes also use about 1/2 cup of cheapy white (think in a box) wine.
I wouldn't mind starting a recipe thread as long as someone can make it sticky. I love to cook and make lots of delicious things but I love new ideas too.

IDK about sticky but we have one here: http://www.collarchat.com/m_4004340/mpage_1/tm.htm

Hey, where's Fornica been the last few weeks?

(Luci, Forni made a cookbook but the domain was down last I checked.)

Damn...it's gotta be a sticky thread so you don't have to scroll through pages of posts to find what you want to make for dinner in 15 minutes LOL

The old board (gamers guild board) I use to run had one but the people that were hosting them decided to take them all down.
We had some goodies in there

Drunk Duck
Herb Crusted Lamb Roast
Slow Roasted Pulled Pork
Seafood Gumbo

gg I'm hungry now
