Quick & Easy BLACK BEAN AND LENTIL CHILI - Food Photo Shoot

in food •  7 years ago 

Happy Tuesday to all you Steemians!!

I know a lot of my dishes can seem complicated from time to time, so today, I wanted to give you an easier way to cook dinner tonight.

Growing up, Chili was not a common dish in my house, maybe twice per year. However, these days it has become more popular. It's also a great way to feed a lot of people, and that is what I do all the time, feed a lot of people.

Perhaps lentils aren’t the most common ingredient in chili. But, they are so good in it and they are less noticeable to the kids than beans. I love using them in recipes.

Oh, and another bit of trivia, chili is NOT popular in Chile. I have tried to serve it a few times to our Chilean friends and they just don't get it.

As always, the RECIPE is available upon request. First request gets an upvote

@gringalicious, I love chili. I order child often and I like it with or without beans. Don't get me started about beans. Beautiful post as usual.

Thanks so much @runridefly. In my little 'like' world, I really like it with beans, in fact the more variety the better

I love chilies! I never had it as kid - just not our thing.
Now I cook it from time to time, but never had it with lentils yet.

Love the photographs too :)

Thanks so much @ewkaw

My winter dish this year is-> Turkey Pulled Wings with Butter Beans and Chickpeas Chili.

Difficult one. Similar to yours, one can't stop eating. :)

That sounds amazing. You should post it @wbudic

I love chili and it has become frequent at our place. We use corn instead of lentils, but those ones are more nutritive​. That will be an option in​ the future for sure.

I have used corn before also. My crew prefers either lentils or beans. Thanks so much for commenting @liliana.duarte, have a great Monday

Ew, Ew & Ew... I hate black beans and I hate lentils! Having said that- upvoted (as always). I don't understand this platform and won't if I live to be 100 (which isn't that far off lol). You get $200 for black beans and lentils... I post a recipe for the world's best Sweet Potato Pie and make $0.45- there just ain't no justice I tell ya!!! Just kidding... I'm not here for the money.

It's funny what sells (foodwise) these days. I was working as a chef at a high-end Italian rest. and my boss wants to serve dandelion greens and polenta for a special ($25.00 a plate!!!). I told him he was crazy- that's what poor people in Italy eat when they can't afford food! It went over great- I guess that shows what I know!

I understand how you feel, I have many, many of those $0.45. Just keep being consistent and persistent and it will pay off. I am proof of that.

You have great writing, this was a fantastic comment. Just keep it up, you'll thank me later.

Oh I'm used to it! I've been writing on here for about 6 mos now and my posts pay much better now. Maybe I should try some more recipes... I haven't done that since I started... I just don't do pics with mine.

Thanks for your kind words!
