Countdown to the Giveaway!
I am super excited for this T-Fal cookware giveaway that starts in 2 days! One of the requirements to enter the giveaway, is to register for the Cooking Planit website. This website is pure genius.
It's so simple to use, type in what you would like to eat, organize in groceries, prep and cook. Oh...don't forget you can decide how many servings you want to cook!
I wanted something spicy, so I chose Steak and 3 Bean Chili. You know I never fully follow any recipe, it was so simple to make adaptions to the recipes in Cooking Plainit!
The hubby doesn't like cumin so I used 2 diced chipotle peppers to give the chili a smokey kick!
I also only had one kind of bean, for my Steak and 3 Bean Chili, so I used all pinto beans which was no problem. I decided the more meat the better, which made the extra addition of ground chuck a winner!
After I browned all my meats for the chili, I put everything back in the pot.
I made another adaptation with the addition of 8 ounces of hot tomato sauce and 4 ounces of roasted Hatch chiles!
Yes, it looks spicy, exactly what I was going for!
Using steak in the recipe was genius! Don't forget to freeze your steak, for at least 1 hour making it easier to dice into little chunks.
You know you want a bite! Well, what are you waiting for people, set up your free #CookingPlanit account today!
