White Chili

1 Jar of Great Northern Beans (or three cans if jar isn't available where you are shopping.)
1 12.5oz can of chicken breast... I used 2 cans because we like the meat!
1 8oz. bag of shredded Monterey Jack Cheddar cheese
1 teaspoon of Chili Powder
1 16oz jar of salsa (I used mild but it can be hotter)
Tortilla Chips

Open everything up except the cheese and tortilla chips.  Pour into Stockpot.
Take about 6 oz of the cheese and mix into the above.
Cook on medium...  Stir until cheese is all melted in with chili and it is hot. 
Pour into bowls and add some of that 2oz of cheese to the bowls and serve with tortilla chips. 



This is a fast and awesome recipe a friend from work recently gave me and it is soooo easy to prepare... My husband and I loves it.

Greek Chili

2 tbsp    Chili powder
2 tsp    Dried oregano leaves
1 tsp    Ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp    Dried mint leaves
1 tbsp    Unsweetened cocoa
1 can    (28 ounces) diced tomatoes, undrained
1 can    (15 ounces) Garbanzo beans or
1 1/2 cups    Cooked dry-packaged Garbanzo beans, rinsed, drained
1 can    (15 ounces) Dark Red Kidney beans or
1 1/2 cups    Cooked dry-packaged Dark Red Kidney beans, rinsed, drained
2 tsp    Honey
6 cups    Cooked macaroni, warm

Sliced green onions and tops, crumbled feta cheese, sliced Greek olives, as garnish *


1    Sauté ground beef, onion, and garlic in large saucepan until ground beef is browned, about 5 minutes; add spices, herbs and cocoa and cook 1 to 2 minutes longer.

NOTE: Although B.E.A.N. recipes usually call for a specific variety, any canned or dry-packaged bean variety can be easily substituted for another.

Neither my husband or I like peppers or onions, so I make mine without. This is the recipe his mom gave me...

1lb ground beef
1 can tomato sauce (not the small cans)
1 can pork and beans
1 can rotel- I usually use the mild...the original makes it quite spicy
1 pack chili seasoning

While the meat is browning, I usually pour the other ingredients into my pot and set it on low until my meat is done cooking.

Sounds good... is it?  I would never consider using pork and beans though! How much does this make?

We like it..you don't really notice the pork and beans, but I would assume you could substitute anything you wanted in its place.

On the servings...I'm trying to think. I'd say there's enough for four. Since theres only two of us; we each can eat, have some for me to take to work and some for leftovers.

We had a very rainy day yesterday, and it's about to start raining again. Makes for really good chili weather. However, when I got home, which was later than usual due to flooded roads, I was looking around the house for something to fix and was really craving chili but didn't have time to let it cook properly and didn't have any turkey meat. I did have all the other stuff to fix some with though.

I used a large can of Bush's chili beans, 1 small can of Rotel Hot tomatoes (with habaneros - could use the regular) and a small can of DelMonte diced tomatoes. I added chili powder, garlic, Cavandars Greek seasoning. It turned out great and hit the spot and I still have some left over for tonight! Easy and quick.  :thumbsup2:
