Super-food Chili

I don't know what I am doing. Geeze. Why wasn't I born just naturally knowing all there is to know about technology. I am much better in the kitchen, honestly. Which brings me to a recipe. I want to record my favorite recipes, but APPARENTLY they have to be blog posts first. I live by the acronym, "KISS." It stands for, "Keep it simple stupid." You don't have to take it on....honestly.

No kissing in the kitchen though. I really like to be crazy when I cook, and unfortunately for any readers, pretty unorthodox and unpredictable. But at least it gives me some pretty original recipes. Here is a chili we had the other night:

Enough Bone Broth for the portion you are serving (I used an entire quart jar, and then half of another)
Chopped onions, green peppers, and red peppers/colorful peppers
1 pound hamburger
An assortment of your favorite beans (I remembered to sprout mine this time...that doesn't always happen!)
2 cans tomato paste
Cumin powder
Turmeric Powder
4 cloves real garlic
Salt

Add your broth and soaked beans to the pot and cook low for 3-4 hours. When beans are super soft, add a can of tomato paste, and maybe 1/2 of the other can. Throw chopped veggies and hamburger in a pot to simmer together. When the hamburger is finished and veggies are a little softer (but not too soft!), mince your garlic. Put everything into the pot o' beans. Add 1/4 cup cumin powder (maybe less, maybe more- up to you!). Add 4-5 tablespoons of turmeric. Add salt to taste. Simmer for 15 minutes on LOW. Serve it up with homemade "Creme" , Nutritional Yeast, and a handful of cilantro straight from the vine (or you know, the "vine" in the clear plastic bag from the grocery store!).
