Stretching leftovers is always a good plan, especially now with our over-the-top food bills. If you celebrated Easter, you may have a few leftover yams or sweet potatoes, and maybe some chili kicking around in your freezer from the winter. If so, this recipe will definitely speak to you! Take it away, Helen…
So, you’ve prepared your
favorite chili recipe. Friends and family said yum! Now you have leftovers, but
not enough to feed everyone another meal. Here’s a tasty trick.
Buy a yam or a sweet
potato for each member in the family. While the taters are microwaving, heat
the leftover chili. When the sweet potatoes are done, place on individual
plates slice open long-ways and fluff. Spoon the heated chili on top of each
potato.
Before you say, “Yuk,”
fork up a taste of this sweet, spicy savory combo. You may need more leftovers.
Enjoy!
Once upon a time there was a mother/daughter author duo named Helen and Lorri, who wrote as HL Carpenter. the Carpenters worked from their studios in Carpenter Country, a magical place that, like their stories was unreal but not untrue. Then one day Lorri left her studio to explore the land of What-If, and like others who have lost a loved one the magical place lost much of its magic. But thanks to family, plus an amazing group of wordsmiths named Authors Moving Forward (AMF), the magic is slowly returning.
