CROCKPOT CHILI I
2 onions, chopped
2 cloves garlic (I use the minced kind that comes in a jar)
1 lb. lean hamburger
2 Tbs. chili powder
cumin to taste (I leave this out)
2 cans (16 oz. ea.) tomatoes
2 cans tomato soup
2 cans kidney beans, drained
salt and pepper to taste
optional: shredded cheese and/or sour cream for topping
1. Cook onions and garlic in 2 Tbs. oil till onions are yellow. Add hamburger and cook till browned. Stir in chili powder and optional cumin; cook 2 minutes more.
Meanwhile, in crockpot, combine remaining ingredients. Stir in browned meat mixture. Cover and cook on Low setting for 8-10 hours.
To serve: ladle chili into bowls. Top with optional shredded cheese and/or sour cream, if desired.
Note: This can be made on top of the stove, too. Let it cook for 1 hour, but stir, so it doesn’t stick to the bottom (this is the nice part of using a CP…no need to worry about sticking).
Meatloaf Stuffed With Ham And Cheese
1 1/4 pounds ground sirloin
1 large onion — finely chopped
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 10 3/4 ounce can condensed tomato soup
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
1 green bell pepper — finely chopped
2 large eggs — lightly beaten
1 cup plain bread crumbs
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
1 garlic clove — minced
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
STUFFING:
6 boiled ham slices
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
TOPPING:
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
3 Mozzarella cheese slices
Preheat oven to 400F. Lightly oil a 9×5x3″ pan.
In a large bowl, combine the meatloaf ingredients, adding more bread crumbs if necessary, a tablespoon at a time, to make a firm loaf. Lightly spray a large piece of aluminum foil. Place the meat mixture on the foil, and form into a 12×8″ rectangle.
Arrange the ham on top of the meat, leaving a small margin around the edges. Sprinkle shredded cheese on top of the ham slices. Starting from the short end, carefully roll the meat mixture jelly-roll style. Seal the edges and ends.
Place the loaf seam side up in the prepared pan. Sprinkle the top of the meatloaf with the flour. Bake 1 hour or until done. The center of the loaf will be pink because of the ham. Top the loaf with slices of cheese, then return to the oven for 5 minutes, or until the cheese melts. (Option: Broil the loaf to melt the cheese. Watch it carefully.)
