Chili anyone?

Jan 3, 2010

A few weeks ago my friend Rachael shared a Weight Watch­ers chili recipe that was so yummy. We have already had it twice. Well I was going to make some last night and totally messed up the gro­cery list. When Alan got back with what I sent him for I quickly real­ized I sent him on a wild goose hunt so I decided to just add what he bought and see what hap­pened. Oh and I should tell you he had to go back to get 2 cans of diced toma­toes because I for­got to put them on the list… mind you I was read­ing the darn recipe as I was mak­ing the list. Not sure where my head was with this task but it clearly was not with mak­ing a list this is for sure. Any­way once I finally got every­thing into the pot oh my gosh what hap­pened was some­thing really good and I thought I would share it with you all. This is some seri­ous com­fort food.

Yummy...

    It may not be worth one point to Weight Watch­ers, but the photo is worth 1,000 points… food pho­tog­ra­phy is another whole arena for you!

    I agree…that is an awe­some photo.…yummy…and with the temps we have been hav­ing and are going to have soup, stews and chili are on the menu here at our house..and I will be adding the ingre­di­ents that I don’t already have on hand to my gorcery list…both sound yummy.…

    Since my youngest son decided to get mar­ried a week before Christ­mas, I am woe­fully behind in read­ing my reg­u­lar blogs. So I have some com­ment catch­ing up to do.
    Ms Lisa you are a ver­i­ta­ble par­a­digm of all things good. You are cre­ative, tal­ented, gen­er­ous, warm, and funny. Cut your­self some slack indeed and learn to relax and enjoy the incred­i­ble human being you are. My tree got dec­o­rated at 2:00 Christ­mas morn­ing and I actu­ally fin­ished 3 presents on Christ­mas day. And every­one had a won­der­ful time and so did I.
    Peace be with you always.

  4. Thanks for the recipe and it’s WW friendly! Yoo hoo! I’m try­ing VERY hard to get my mind out of the hol­i­days and back on my WW diet! Suzie
