Between Storms 4-Bean Chili
This makes a ton and you can use any leftover roast, pork, sausage or chicken. I usually make it with cooked, shredded chicken - delish and so easy.
Four-Bean Chili For a Crowd
4 cans of beans of your choice, with liquid
3 cans diced tomatoes, with liquid, Mexican style, opt.
1 1/2 cups shredded cooked chicken, pork or beef
1 t. ground cumin
1 bay leaf
1/2 t. hot pepper sauce, opt.
Heat in 4-qt. saucepan over med-high heat. Cook, stirring until it comes to a boil, reduce to low and cover. Simmer until it thickens, 25-30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove bay leaf. From The Dinner Doctor cookbook.
Serve with cornbread. My friend, Ceslie, uses Jiffy cornbread mixes and replaces the liquid with a can of creamed corn - sweet and moist!
You better have college students for dinner after church if you're going to make this today. They will love you for it--leftover chilis and soups are always better.
