Savvy with Abbie

This past weekend was not only super fun but also super chilly. I am so thankful that it is finally reaching cooler temperatures. We are in California and we have seriously been in the 90's up to 120 degrees the past 5 months. It's been an insanely hot summer. Yesterday it was in the 70's so I decided to put together a Chili recipe in the crockpot. I wasn't actually going to do a blog on because, well, it's just Chili. But after trying it, I scrounged up the few pictures I took and decided to put together a blog. I also decided to put a list together of some of the other Chili recipes I have made so you can see those recipes below. This one I made up on my own. If you make it, please comment below and let me know if you like it! Ingredients: Bear Creek "Darn Good" Chili Mix 1 small can of tomato sauce 2 cups water 2 cups chicken broth 1 can black beans 1 can red kidney beans 1 lb ground turkey 2 tbsp garlic powder 2 tbsp onion powder Shredded cheese (as mu

Today is Friday which means a lazy day. I wanted to cook something super easy so I chose the Slow Cooker Chili Cheese Casserole. The full recipe is HERE . I ate two bowls but next time I would recommend less Sour Cream and less Cheese. Super easy to make and perfect for a cooler and lazy day! If you add Fritos on top or on the side, it makes it taste way better :) I would recommend this as a DIP rather than a MEAL . Ingredients: 9 1/4oz bag Fritos 2 15-oz cans of Chili 3 Cups cheddar cheese 16 oz Sour Cream Onion Powder Directions:  Spray slow cooker with non-stick spray. Sprinkle 1.5 cups of Fritos at the bottom of the slow cooker. Spoon over a layer of chili, half the cheese, and onion powder. Spread over all of the sour cream and top the rest with cheese. I added a lot of cheese because we love cheese. Cook on high for 2.5 hours and then top with Fritos. Enjoy!

It's been raining and pouring the past few days so today's dinner is a delicious and easy Chili in the Crockpot. I put all of the ingredients in the crockpot and put on high for six hours. We added Saltines and Cheese but feel free to add other ingredients! Ingredients: Ground Beef Smoked Beef Sausage Two cans of Red Beans (or kidney beans) Two cans of Black Beans Two cans of White Beans Two cans of Tomato Sauce A package of Chili Seasoning Mix together and enjoy!
