Time 9h

Number Of Ingredients 20

3 lb lean ground beef
2 1/2 can(s) diced tomatoes undrained
1 large green pepper, diced
1 large vidalia onion, diced
3 c chopped celery
2 can(s) red kidney beans, undrained
2 Tbsp unsweetened cocoa
1 c jalapeno peppers chopped
1 tsp fresh ground black pepper
1 Tbsp cumin
1 tsp cayenne pepper
1 Tbsp paprika
3 clove garlic diced small
4 Tbsp chilli powder
2 can(s) sliced mushroom, drained (optional)
salt (to taste)
4 c cheddar cheese, grated (for serving)
1 pkg nachos, multi coloured (for serving)
500 ml sour cream (for serving)
your favorite hot sauce

Steps:

  • 1. Brown Ground Beef in Non Stick Frying Pan and drain off fat and put in Slow Cooker.
  • 2. In same frying pan saute onions in a little oil until soft. About 5 minutes. Add garlic and saute until fragrant. About 2 minutes. Add to Slow Cooker.
  • 3. Add all other ingredients to Slow Cooker except Sour Cream, Cheddar Cheese, Hot Sauce, and Nachos.
  • 4. Mix well and set to low for about 6 hours.
  • 5. Stir and adjust seasoning. This is a rather spicy chilli but if you like it really hot feel free to add more "hot" spices or hot sauce to suit your preference. Cook on low for another 2 hours to give spices a chance to blend in.
  • 6. Serve in a bowl or large cup with Cheddar Cheese and a dollop of Sour Cream in the middle. Place Nachos on plate around cup and serve.
  • 7. NOTE: This freezes extremely well. You can also make it the night before. Just make sure to refrigerate and give it an extra hour cooking time. I usually have a bag of buns precut and buttered for those that prefer. Although this recipe is spicy it is not "firehouse hot" more of a slow burn that will have you sniffling and tearing by the time the bowl is done.

GREEK-STYLE NACHOS



Greek-Style Nachos image

Nachos can be fun as a bar food, but they're usually not much more than that. Here, I'm substituting like mad to create what you might call Greek-style nachos. Mine go like this: pita triangles toasted with olive oil; a sauce of feta and yogurt, spiked with mint and lemon; a topping of ground lamb with onion and cumin; and a garnish of tomatoes, cucumbers and olives. The whole thing takes maybe a half-hour, and it's all familiar except for the arrangement.

Categories     dinner, appetizer

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 pita pockets, white or whole wheat, cut into wedges
About 1/2 cup olive oil
Salt
4 ounces feta cheese
1/2 cup yogurt, preferably whole-milk
1/2 cup chopped fresh mint
1 lemon
Freshly ground black pepper
1 medium onion, chopped
1/2 pound ground lamb
1 tablespoon ground cumin
2 or 3 medium ripe tomatoes, chopped
1 medium cucumber, peeled and seeded if necessary, and chopped
1/2 cup calamata olives, pitted and halved (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees Arrange pita wedges in one layer on baking sheets and brush or drizzle with a tablespoon or two of olive oil. Bake until they begin to color, turning once or twice, about 10 minutes. Sprinkle with salt, turn off oven and put chips back in to keep warm.
  • In a blender or food processor, combine feta, yogurt, 1/4 cup olive oil, mint and zest and juice of lemon; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Blend or process until smooth. (You can also mash mixture by hand, with a fork.)
  • Put two tablespoons of oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and cook onions until soft, about 5 minutes. Add lamb and cumin and sprinkle with salt and pepper; continue cooking until meat is cooked through, about 5 to 10 minutes more. Put chips on a serving plate and top with lamb, sauce, tomatoes, cucumbers and olives if you're using them.
