Well my chili is now officially gone! But it served us so well this week! My final chili recipe is one that is super easy and so delicious! I guess our fall chili days are officially over . . . it has been snowing a bit today, signaling the onslaught of winter and the lovely cold to come!
As a kid growing up I remember scanning thru what I thought was the coolest book ever "Today's Tips For Easy Living" by Dian Thomas. I guess she used to be the genius crafty lady on the Today show. Anyways I loved that book and last fall I found a copy at Deseret Book! It was the holy grail of all finds! I would have bought everyone I know one . . . but their was only one . . . so now I am relishing it! The ideas within are brilliant as are the recipes! I made the Chili Chip casserole for dinner the other night and my hubby LOVED it!!! (All I can say is fritos . . . in a casserole . . . with chili . . . and cheese = yummy!!!)
Chili Chip Casserole
1 lb hamburger
1 (8oz) can tomato sauce
1 (16 oz) can chili con carne
3 cups fritos
1 jalapeno chopped (optional)
1/2 cup grated cheddar cheese
Brown hamburger in skillet over medium heat. Drain off drippings. Add tomato sauce and chili con carne. Stir in 1 cup of fritos. Heat until warmed thru. Add jalapeno and cheese on top for added zip. Top with remaining fritos and bake in oven for about 10-15 minutes until bubbly or hot. Serve with sour cream and freshly diced onion. Serves 4 to 6 people.
(I just use leftover chili to make this! It is really good!)

Yesterday I was pretty pleased with myself, having made a bento that would match the bento shirt that I will be selling on my Gamer Babies store. Then of course, I committed the ultimate sin. I forgot my bento at home on the kitchen counter. [...]http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/AdventuresInBe...

That?s a Wrap!Added 08/09/2008 12:00:10
So I am a big fan of Thai food as you will likely find out in future posts throughout my blog. Driving for lunch one day a few months back, I happened to stop at this bakery as I heard they had a fantastic sandwich bar. Looking at the large[...]http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/zestycook/~3/3...

Rainy day dinnerAdded 14/11/2008 01:44:15
It is a gross day in New York, and someone forgot their umbrella this morning. By the time I got to my apartment from the subway on my way home from work, I couldn’t see because the rain running down my face was clouding my contacts. [...]http://couchcubicle.com/2008/11/13/rainy-day-...
