I really love experimenting with a variety of unusual ingredient combinations! Sometimes my trials work out and sometimes they do not!
I created this dish based on items I needed to use up before they expired and the outcome was delightful!
This recipe makes enough to serve 8 people and goes great with a side salad.
ENJOY!
OK, please don’t laugh out loud when I tell you I was in the mood for chili when the Southern California temps dipped into the low 60’s! Since I was born and raised in upstate New York you think I would be used to below zero temperatures and mounds of snow. Needless to say, I prefer palms to pines and sand to snow.
My husband cannot handle spices very well so this recipe is a mild version of chili but if you like a bit more heat, increase the chili powder from 1 tsp. to 1 Tbl. Also, this calls for 2 cups of water to make the chili more soup-like but if you prefer it super thick, decrease it to 1 cup.
ENJOY!
I really love certain types of food and Thai dishes are at the top of my list. I decided to combine everything I love into one meal but kept each side separate and allowed guests to build their own bowls.
Feel free to experiment with veggies and toppings of your own, the key is in using fresh basil and coconut rice. The rest is simply up to your individual taste and creativity!
Some of my guests do not like spicy food but I would definitely recommend adding a bit of red pepper to the peanut sauce to give it a little “kick”.
ENJOY!
