It’s chili season, and Am excited to share my best Two Bean Steak Chili Recipe with you. Tender melt in your mouth slow cooked steak, white and red kidney beans in a rich tomato sauce make this chili my favorite chili recipe.

I go easy on the beans in this chili recipe, but you can add more or less or omit them altogether.

My family doesn’t like too spicy food so I go easy on the chili powder too, you can adjust the heat in this recipe use less or more depending on what you like.

I like to use chuck steak which has a lot of beefy flavor. But any cut of beef that’s marked “stewing beef” works well in this recipe. You want a tough cut of meat that soften and become tender and tasty after a long cook time.

You’ll want to keep this recipe on your meal rotation to make at least once a week, during the colder weather months.

Toppings For This Two Bean Steak Chili

Normally,  it’s all about the toppings in chili recipes. But this Two Bean Steak Chili recipe is so rich that you won’t need a lot of go -to chili toppings.

The topping I liked the best on this steak chili are avocados and sharp cheddar cheese. I found that adding more toppings distract from the rich flavor of the chili, instead of adding to it. I am not saying to not test different toppings for yourself, am saying that’s what I found.

Here’s some to try red onions, nacho chips, cilantro or sliced jalapenos, just remember not to over powder the rich beefy flavor with to many toppings!!!

This Two Bean Steak Chili is the ultimate comfort food, A chili so good you won’t have any leftovers, but if you do this recipe is so freezer friendly if stored in the right freezer containers.

Here’s a tip you should purposely double this chili recipe, for delicious ready made meals on busy weeknights.

Good morning, It’s meatless Monday in my kitchen today with this Vegetarian Eggplant Zucchini Fusilli. Cork screw shaped pasta, good for you ingredients, in a light tomato pan sauce, will have you making this pasta recipe often.

I usually make this in the summer when my garden is bursting with more eggplants and zucchinis than I have recipes for, but the eggplant looked beautiful at the store and I was craving Italian but also wanted a lighter meal after heavy holiday eating.

Personalize This Vegetarian Eggplant Zucchini Fusilli Recipe

You can make this Vegetarian Eggplant Zucchini Fusilli recipe your very own, to fit your lifestyle and taste, by changing up a few things.

For instance,  the pasta shape if you don’t like fusilli use any shape you like. Having said that I have to say, I love short pasta in this recipe verses long, with short pasta you get a taste of all the delicious ingredients in one forkful.

Also the eggplant and zucchini ratio can be changed. If you like zucchini more than eggplant than use more zucchini or vice- verse.

One more thing you can try, if your craving gooey cheese goodness add 1 cup of shredded mozzarella along with the parmesan cheese for a richer pasta dish.

I almost forget, the canned tomatoes can be switched, you can use fresh tomatoes when in season or you can use prepared marinara sauce, the best store bought or my easy homemade marinara.

on a side note, always use the right size pans for ultimate success in your home kitchen. One good basic set of pots and pans is all you need.to cook restaurant style recipes at home.

What Kind of Lobster to use In this Easy roasted Lobster Recipe

I used frozen Maine lobsters for this Easy Roasted lobster recipe. There are two main groups of lobsters clawed lobsters and spiny or rock lobster.

The difference between the two??? Maine lobsters are found not only in Maine, but also else where on the cold North Atlantic coast, as well as the Canada coast.

Red lobster buys  live Maine lobsters tails, which is how they are almost always sold.

Rock lobsters are found in warmer waters and they don’t have large edible claws like the Maine Lobster, but only tiny claws, which don’t have any edible meat.

This is why rock lobsters  only come in tails.

Red lobster buys Rock lobster tails frozen which is how they are usually purchased. That’s what I used in this Easy Roasted Lobster recipe.

This is a restaurant quality recipe that is easy and delicious, if you make it please leave me a comment, and please don’t forget to tag me on Instagram with your creations. I love hearing from you!!!!
