Chili Mac

This recipe really brings back some memories. We ate chili mac, well really anything with macaroni and cheese, when my dad was away hunting. Mac was not his favorite food.

And, because our children have celiac disease, you can read more about that here, they had never had anything like it before. But, desperation is where recipes are born, so here is my gluten free rendition of this old favorite.

Chili Seasoning

It is cold, and icy here in Western Montana. Perfect weather for a great big pot of Chili to be simmering on the stove!

I like a really flavor full chili, and once we had to be cautious of gluten in our foods, that made it a challenge to just grab a seasoning packet off the grocery shelf like I used to.

I have a bit of a DIY attitude, and many of the recipes I have tried for chili seasoning did not leave me or my family completely satisfied. So, when I tweaked it enough that my husband looked at me and said, “this one is good, hunee!” I knew it was the winner!

Method

  • Mix everything together, getting the clumps out before adding to your soup. This mixture is for one large pot of chili, large meaning it will feed more than 12 people because that is how we roll around here.
  • If your pot of soup is small, add by the teaspoon until you reach your desired level of flavoring. We enjoy very flavorful food, and I suggest that you own your flavors here.

***If you are following the Trim Healthy Plan, this blend would make a great addition to any chili of your choice, in any fuel type.***

Easy Chili

As a mom to many, easy meals are essential to my success in the kitchen.

While chili is regaled as an easy meal, thanks mainly to the ability to buy commercially canned beans and tomato products, when you cook all your beans from dry as we do it brings a certain level of planning into the mix that many do not want to hassle with.

But, for those with a large family or who really like cooking beans on their own, here is my recipe that keeps it super simple, sister!

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 pounds dry Large Red Kidney Beans, cooked. We like ordering beans and spices from here.
  • 2-28 Ounce cans Crushed tomatoes
  • 1-28 ounce can water
  • 1/4 Cup Chili Powder
  • 2 teaspoons Cumin Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Paprika Powder
  • 2 teaspoons Garlic Powder
  • 2 teaspoons Onion Powder
  • 1 Tablespoon Mineral Salt
  • 1 teaspoon Black Pepper

Method

  • Soak and Cook the Kidney beans, you will need to plan at least 8 hours in advance for this
  • Place the seasonings in with the cooked beans (not before or it will be too soupy and the salt can inhibit the beans cooking well), and begin heating.
  • Add the tomato products and water.
  • Cover and heat until boiling, simmer at least 20 minutes.

This is a recipe for 14-16 people, because my kids eat at least two bowls a piece of this soup every time we make it.

One serving of it falls into an E setting on the Trim Healthy Mama plan. Because my kids are still growing, I add a pat of butter to each of their bowls to make it a crossover meal.

Thank you so much for stopping by!
