Chili!

 I made some chili for dinner and it was super good! So I thought I would share it:
                                     
 1 piece steak cut into small cubes (about 2 servings)
 2-3 medium sized potatoes
 1 can pinto, kidney or black beans-undrained
 1 can tomato sauce
 1 can diced tomato with green chili-undrained
 1 cup water
 1 TB cilantro
 1 TB chili powder
 1/2 tsp. cumin
 1 TB dehydrated onion
 dash of garlic powder
 salt, pepper

brown your meat, drain it
bake potatoes in the microwave for 3-4 minutes (until soft but not mushy)-                                      
or you could boil, cut into small cubes
combine beans, tomato sauce, tomatoes, water, cilantro and spices
stir and bring to boil over medium heat
 Mix well and serve with sour cream, bread or whatever sounds good!
The fun thing about chili is you can make it any way you want. No potatoes, two cans of beans, no cilantro. There really is no way to mess it up. Well maybe...but there really is so many different things you could do to change it up!

Melanie came to visit for the day! It was so fun to see her, she's a long time BFF of mine! We had a fun time just chatting and catching up!

Jeter sprouted his first tooth the other day! A little bottom one. Poor little guy got a cold either from it or it was just bad timing. The drool has kind of stopped but not quite. We just love this little guy!!!!
