Superstar DJ.... Here We Go!

Last week is behind me (except for some continued fluid in my ear). I feel good and am anxious to get outside. I was gonna take tonight off but opted to do some steady high cadence spinning on the trainer. Knowing that I plan on doing a quick 1:15 mountain bike ride tomorrow, I kept my RPMs around 92 - 102 and the resistance low to medium. Since my HR monitor is kaput and is no more I've been going on time and perceived effort. Good workout though. Felt refreshing in that good sweaty, disgusting sort of way.

Had a good mix going on the iPod tonight:


Mix is for you J.B.

Cooked up some Chili tonight. The first batch of the fall. Mmmm 'twas good. Nothing gourmet or anything. No time for that shit, plus we're talking about chili.

Here it is:

Chop:
1 large red bell pepper
1 large green bell pepper
1 large onion

In large non-stick pot saute 1/2lb. of Ground Round (adding peppers near the middle of the fry and onions near the end, cook till meat is browned and peppers tender)

Add:
2 cans of chili beans
1 can black beans (rinsed, get all that black shit off of 'em)
1 can tomato soup
1 can diced tomatoes
Large amounts of chili powder (to taste)
Pinch of Kosher Salt, and black pepper
1 or 4 dashes of red pepper flakes (to taste)
If you have any open salsa I like to toss in a few spoon fulls to spice it up.

Simmer through and serve it up. Lots of good protein and fiber. I like thick chili, if you like thinner chili add a cup of water and mix through. I've also been known to make this with Morningstar Farms Burger Crumbles to avoid the cholesterol of beef.

Alright, recipe time is over.

Later.
