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

gringalicious (78) in food • 8 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

Also, check out some of my other recent food posts for more mouthwatering photos!

AND A HUGE MASSIVE SHOUT OUT TO@rigaronib for designing my logo!!!!

I am always open to feedback, and would love to know how you feel I could do better and please do not forget to

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!

gringalicious (78) · 8 years ago

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!
