This is a crock pot recipe but if you don’t own a crock pot it is just as easy to make on the stove. Every one in my family loves this.
2 medium onions chopped
2 red or green bell peppers chopped
2 pounds ground turkey
2 cans (14 1/2 oz) diced tomatoes
1 can beef broth (14 1/2 oz)
1/4 cup tomato paste
2 Tablespoons chili powder
1 Tablespoon ground mustard
1 Tablespoon Cumin
1 Can kidney beans rinsed and drained
1 Can pinto beans, rinsed and drained
Garnish with shredded cheese, sour cream and green onion. Serve with rice or corn bread.
Place all ingredients into Crock pot and cook on high for 6 – 8 hours. I cook it this long because usually when I am making it the Turkey is frozen. If the turkey is not frozen I am sure you could cook it for a lot less time.
To cook on stove top, heat a dutch oven and add 2 Tablespoons of vegetable oil. Add onions and peppers, cook and stir ab0ut 3 minutes over medium heat. Add turkey and cook about 4 minutes, stirring to break up meat. Stir in tomatoes, broth, 1 Cup of water, tomato paste, chili powder, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer 30 minutes, stirring often. If chili is too thick, add water, until desired consistency is reached. Add beans and cook 20 minutes or until beans are hot.
Scrambled egg mini muffins
Everyone makes the scrambled egg casseroles with milk and bread and I just wanted something without the bread. I made them mini because I thought more then a bite was more then I wanted. They are easy to make. When it is my turn in tennis to bring something people want to eat for breakfast this is what I bring.
1/2 pound of ground pork. You can use Jimmy Dean or any other brand or, in my case I used what was in my freezer. 2 mild Italian Sausages and 2 Hot Italian Sausages.
12 eggs. I am going to try using half eggs half eggbeaters next time. I think it will work just as well.
1/2 cup chopped onion. Red or white
1/4 – 1/2 cup chopped red or green bell pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 -3/4 cup shredded cheese. I suggest what ever you have on hand, but if you are buying then get cheddar.
In a large skillet, cook the sausage over medium heat till no longer pink. If you are using sausage in the casings I suggest you remove the casing before cooking! Let sausage cool. In a large bowl, beat the eggs. Add the onion, red pepper, salt, pepper and garlic powder. Stir in the sausage and cheese.
Pre-heat oven to 350°. Spray mini muffin tins with Pam and fill 3/4 full. Bake for 15 minutes. They should just pop right out!
Variations…. basically I think that what ever you would like to put into an omelet you can put into these. I think one of my favorite suggestions is green chilies.
