Today’s Menu: Leftover 3 Bean Turkey Chili w/ Cornbread

For Breakfast I Poached an Egg and served it on a Aunt Millie’s Living Carb Smart English Muffin. I also heated up a couple of Johnsonville Turkey Breakfast Sausage Links and a cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea. It’s a cool Fall morning out there, 44 degrees and windy. The rain stopped and the skies cleared. For the Afternoon it was sunny and 58 degrees. I took Mom to her Treatment Appointment then back home to a yard full of leaves. Tis the Fall Season! My Pepper Plants are still producing like crazy, everyone in the neighborhood has plenty of Green Bell Peppers. Cool Fall Day deserves Chili, 3 Bean Turkey Chili! That was my last container in the freezer. Which means I’ll be cooking up a new batch soon. Below I left the original post from last night for recipe directions and ingredients. Take Care and Stay Safe!

I love making a batch of my 3 Bean Turkey Chili! To make my Chili I’m using Jennie -O Lean Ground Turkey, 2 – 1lb. packages. The 3 Beans I use are 1 Can (16 oz.) Bush’s Chili Beans (Black Beans), 1 Can (16 oz.) Bush’s Chili Beans ( Kidney Beans), 1 Can (16 oz.) Bush’s Chili Beans (Great Northern Beans) drained and rinsed, a tablespoon of Jif Creamy Peanut Butter, 1 Red Onion (medium Chopped or Minced), 1 Jalapeno Pepper (Seeded and Chopped), and 3 Cloves Minced Garlic. For my spices I use 1 Packet McCormick Chili Mix, 2 Cans (6 oz.) Hunt’s Tomato Paste (2 cans),4 Cloves Minced Garlic, 2 tsp Ground Anchio Chile Pepper, 2 tsp Ground Paprika, 1 Tbs. Ground Chile Seasoning, 2 Tbs. Ground Roasted Cumin, 1 tsp Ground Cinnamon, 2Tbsps Jif Smooth Peanut Butter, 1 Tbsp of Cilantro Leaves and 5 Dashes of Frank’s Hot Sauce or to taste (I usually add a lot more dashes!). What’s good about this recipe you can use your own favorite Spices and make your own tweaks to it.

First thing I do is get the Crock Pot out and put in a Glad Crock Pot Liner. The Liners are incredible, just line your Crock Pot with one and spray it with Pam Cooking Spray. Now you are set to go. It makes for one easy clean up, just remove it when done and give the inside of your Crock Pot a quick wipe down and your clean up is done! On with the recipe.

I prepared the Ground Turkey and Bean Mix last night and had it in the fridge. To prepare the Turkey, I started by browning the Jennie -O Ground Turkey. Using a large skillet sprayed with Pam Cooking Spray and 1 tablespoon of Extra Virgin Olive Oil. Preheat the skillet on medium heat. When heated I add the Ground Turkey and all the Seasonings and Tomato Paste, stirring often. When the Turkey has browned I put it aside and mixed my Beans. I opened all 3 cans of Bush Beans into a large bowl and stirred until mixed.

This morning I turned the Slow Cooker on Low, sprayed the cooker liner with Pam Non Stick Spray, and added a 1/2 cup of Water to it. Let heat for about 20 minutes and I added everything to the Crock Pot. I’ll be cooking my Chili for 6 – 7 hours. Then sit back and enjoy the aroma, that usually starts after a couple of hours or so of simmering! I love a thick Chili and this one works! The Jennie – O Ground Turkey combined with all those Beans and Spices is a perfect match. Served it topped with some Sargento Reduced Fat Shredded Sharp Cheddar Cheese and a couple of shakes of Frank’s Red Hot Sauce. I’ll be using the Leftover Chili in a couple of different ways for meals , can’t wait! Chili is even better after sitting in the fridge for a day! The full recipe and list of ingredients is at the end of the post. For Dessert latera Jello Sugar Free Dark Cherry Jello.

Today’s Menu: Turkey Frank Cincinnati Style Cheese Coneys

For Breakfast this morning I had my morning cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea. 81 degrees, mostly sunny, and no humidity. Not bad at all outside. I had to have Mom over to Miracle Ear at 12:30 this afternoon. They cleaned it and made some minor adjustments. It’s been a slow process but I’m feeling a lot better, still a bit to go. Anyway I got a little yard work done today. For Dinner tonight it’s Turkey Frank Cincinnati Style Cheese Coneys.

So as usual I used Ball Park Smoked White Meat Turkey Franks, an excellent Turkey Frank! I boiled them, it took about 6 minutes and they were ready, plump, and delicious. Plus they are lower in calories and carbs than most other Hot Dogs, 45 calories and 5 carbs!

I heated a can of Skyline Chili with Beans for my topping. We prefer the Chili with Beans over the Chili with no Beans. It just gives the Coneys even more flavor with the added Beans! I served everything on a Aunt Millie’s Live Carb Smart Hot Dog Buns. Put the Frank in the Bun then topped it with French’s Yellow Mustard, the Chili, and Sargento Reduced Fat Sharp Cheddar Shredded Cheese. Had a small side of some Skyline Oyster Crackers with a few drops of Frank’s Hot Sauce on them, which is a common way to have them here in the Cincinnati area. We love our Chili, Chili Dogs, Chili Spaghetti, and Hot Sauce here in the Cincinnati area. For Dessert later a Jello Sugar Free Dark Chocolate Pudding.

For Breakfast this morning I had my morning cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea. They called with my test results and there was one problem, they found a place on my right kidney. The Doc talked to me and he told me not to fret over it. In his opinion it’s a cyst. Which if is it can be taken care of. Hopefully he’s right! 49 degrees out this morning. Sunny and 81 degrees out today. After my Tea I headed outside and watered the lawn, we need some rain! The yards around the neighborhood are stating to show brown spots. Next I watered all the plants. Then at 1:00 this afternoon had to be back at the Urologist to give more blood for testing. Next they’ll schedule some scans at the hospital. Back home I just relaxed and rested. For Dinner tonight it’s Turkey Frank Cincinnati Style Cheese Coneys.

Today’s Menu: Baked Chili and Cheese Nachos

For Breakfast this morning I had a cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea. 88 degrees and sunny out. I had to break out the sunscreen. We had a heavy thunderstorm last night and more overnight tonight. Hopefully it will stay clear so we can see the Blood Moon Eclipse tonight! After my Tea I went to the Meijer Garden Center. I bought a large Planter, a bag of Potting Soil, and 3 Pepper Plants. I really didn’t need 3 more but as I said before I love growing Flowers and Vegetables! Back home I planted the new Plants. Then I added dirt to some of the other Planters and Watered everything. Beautiful outside! For Dinner tonight a real Comfort Food and Mom’s favorite, Baked Chili and Cheese Nachos.

Not that hungry tonight so it’s going to be an Appetizer for Dinner tonight as I prepared Baked Chili and Cheese Nachos. To make them I’ll need: Tostitos Multi Grain Scoops for my Chips. I love these with Salsa or just as a snack, they bake and hold their shape better than most chips. For my toppings I used 1 can of Mario Sliced Black Olives, sliced up some Green Olives, Mezzetta Deli Sliced Jalapeno Peppers, Hormel Turkey Chili with Beans, a few shakes (or more) of Frank’s Red Hot Sauce, and Sargento Reduced Fat Mozzarella. Put all that together and it’s nothing but good Nachos! I especially love the Jalapenos, nice mild heat!

To prepare I preheated the oven at 400 degrees and sprayed a glass baking dish with Pam and layer everything in. I first opened up 2 cans of the Hormel Chili with Beans and heated them up in a saucepan, as it was heating I added about 6 shakes of Frank’s Hot Sauce to it and mixed. After the Chili was ready I added 4 tablespoons of Chili to the baking dish, then I added my Scoops (Chips). I then added the Sliced Black Olives and Sliced Green Olives, the remainder of the Chili, Sliced Jalapeno Peppers (Love These), and then top everything with the Cheese. Then just pop it in the oven for 10 minutes or until the Cheese has started to melt and everything is heated. We love Nachos, nothing better than a big plate of Chili Cheese Nachos! For Dessert/Snack a 100 Calorie Mini Bag of Snyder’s Pretzels with a Diet Kiwi/Strawberry Snapple.

Hormel Turkey w/Beans 98% Fat Free Chili

Directions:
* Stove top: empty chili into saucepan. Stir occasionally while heating over medium heat, about 5 minutes or until hot. Microwave: empty chili into microwaveable bowl; cover loosely.

For Breakfast this morning I cooked up some Simply Potatoes Shredded Hash Browns, fried 2 Johnsonville Turkey Breakfast Sausage Links, had a cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea. 53 degrees, partly cloudy, and a light rain shower later in the day. Still not feeling up to par, I’m just so tired. So it’s another being a Slug Day! For Dinner tonight I prepared some 3 Bean Turkey Chili w/ Cheese and Tortilla Rounds.

I made some of my Crock Pot 3 Bean Turkey Chili a while back and had 1 container left in the freezer. I sat the container in the fridge to thaw overnight. So it’s an easy dish to make tonight. I’ll need to heat up the leftover 3 Bean Turkey Chili, Frank’s Hot Sauce, Daisy Reduced Fat Sour Cream, Sargento Off the Block Sharp Cheddar Cheese, and Mission Tortilla Rounds. When making my Chili I use a Crock Pot and let it simmer all day! To make it I use; 2 – 1 lb. packages of Jennie – O Ground Turkey Breast, many Spices, 1 Packet McCormick Chili Mix, and Frank’s Hot Sauce. To reheat; I just added the Chili to a sauce pan and heated it on low, stirring often until heated through. Set aside until needed.

As I said I’m serving the Chili with some Frank’s Hot Sauce, Daisy Reduced Fat Sour Cream, and Sargento Off the Block Sharp Cheddar Cheese. For the Tortilla Chips I’m using Mission Tortilla Rounds.

To make it I got a bowl and made a bed of the Tortilla Rounds. Topped with some of the Chili, Hot Sauce, and Cheese. I had the Sour Cream on the side of the Bowl. Fantastic Light Meal. The Mission Tortilla Rounds are excellent Chips! I love using the 3 Bean Chili as many ways as I can, its so delicious! So for Dessert/Snack a Breyer’s 90 Calorie Chocolate Ice Cream Cup.

Today’s Menu: Turkey Frank Cincinnati Style Cheese Coneys

For Breakfast this morning I had my morning cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea. 59 degrees and sunny out today. After my Tea I headed to Walmart for a few items. I guess I’m going to have to go to Walmart more often. They seem to have the best prices by far. I’ll just get my Meats at Meijer. Things are just so expensive. I feel sorry for large families trying to make it. I stopped and picked up Breakfast for Mom at McDonald’s. Back home I did a load of laundry. A friend of mine here in the neighborhood has been setting baited cages out to catch skunks and opossums. So far we have relocated 1 skunk and 2 opossums. There is a good size forest area down the road and we are releasing them there. Anyway, I got a little yard work done. For Dinner tonight it’s Turkey Frank Cincinnati Style Cheese Coneys.

So as usual I used Ball Park Smoked White Meat Turkey Franks, an excellent Turkey Frank! I boiled them, it took about 6 minutes and they were ready, plump, and delicious. Plus they are lower in calories and carbs than most other Hot Dogs, 45 calories and 5 carbs!

I heated a can of Skyline Chili with Beans for my topping. We prefer the Chili with Beans over the Chili with no Beans. It just gives the Coneys even more flavor with the added Beans! I served everything on a Aunt Millie’s Live Carb Smart Hot Dog Buns. Put the Frank in the Bun then topped it with French’s Yellow Mustard, the Chili, and Sargento Reduced Fat Sharp Cheddar Shredded Cheese. Had a small side of some Skyline Oyster Crackers with a few drops of Frank’s Hot Sauce on them, which is a common way to have them here in the Cincinnati area. We love our Chili, Chili Dogs, Chili Spaghetti, and Hot Sauce here in the Cincinnati area. For Dessert/Snack later a 100 Calorie Mini Bag of Snyder’s Pretzels with a Diet Peach Snapple to drink.
