Recipe:

Chili Beef and Bean Stew

This a great dish to save for a lazy, winter day when you have the time to make this hearty stew. Braising it long and low in the oven always results in a melt in your mouth bowl of beefy comfort. I love it with kidney beans but it would good with cranberry beans for a nice change as well. It’s great for Sunday supper but the recipe makes enough that you can freeze half for another day!

Chili-Stuffed Baked Potatoes with Chipotle Cream

This is a tasty, basic chili with no fancy surprises or anything, just pure fall comfort. The addition of masa harina at the end thickens it up a bit and since we are eating it over baked potatoes, I wanted a thicker chili as opposed to a soupier chili. It’s not spicy either so that it can please all of the people in the house – the chipotle cream adds heat for those who want it.

Make the chili ahead of time for an easy weeknight dinner. It’s also a great way to use up the leftover chili!
