SO, THE WEATHER TURNED COOLER

SO, THE WEATHER TURNED COOLER

   So, the weather turned a little cooler.  I found a recipe in a recent WalMart circular for an interesting drink:

Frankenstein's Creamy Caramel Hot Chocolate

1 cup (8 oz) hot cocoa

1/4 C International Delight Hershey's Chocolate Caramel Gourmet

       Coffee Creamer

1 T caramel sauce

Combine cocoa and chocolate caramel creamer in a mug and stir to blend.  Drizzle with caramel sauce and enjoy

Serves 1

Doesn't that sound good?  Look out Starbucks!

   If that isn't enough, let's cook some chili:



3 lb ground chuck or chili meat

1 medium onion, diced

38 oz can of Ranch Style Beans

42 oz Pace Picante sauce

3 T chili powder

Brown the meat with the onions.  Drain.  In 5 qt Dutch oven, add the meat, onions, picante sauce and beans.  Cook over medium heat about 20 minutes.  Mix in chili powder until well blended.  Enjoy over hot dogs, corn chips, rice, crackers, or a number of different foods.
