Mexi Dish

Yummy Chili, or use the seasoning combination for tacos, enchiladas, or fajitas. James and I don't like things really hot, so feel free to add additional Chili Powder or actual hot peppers to increase the kick!

Mexi Dish

1 lb ground turkey or beef

1 medium onion, diced

1 green bell pepper, diced

1 red bell pepper, diced

--sometimes I add other veggies if I have them or I'll use frozen veggies (I've even used canned green beans or corn too)

1 large can crushed tomatoes (use only diced tomatoes when you want less sauce and more chunkiness!)

1 large can diced tomatoes (Furmano's has a yummy cilantro and lime diced canned tomato)

Seasonings:

2 tsp Chili Powder

1 Tb Cumin

1 tsp Mustard Powder

1 Tb Oregano

1 tsp Garlic

1/2 tsp Salt

Fresh Cilantro (optional)

Lime Juice - about 1/4 of a lime squeezed or 1/2 tsp lemon juice

Additional items for toppings:

8 oz cheese, shredded (we like sharp cheddar or monterey jack)

1 tsp sour cream per person

freshly made guacamole

fresh chopped veggies: lettuce, tomatoes, onions, cucumbers

open a can of salsa if you'd rather not make your own!
