All-The-Award Winning Southwest Chicken Chili

October 26, 2018 by Annie Chesson Leave a Comment

Alright people, this chili is a family legend, and my in-laws have gracefully granted me permission to share it on the blog. It started with my husband's second cousins, Led and Connie. This was their chili recipe initially, and they would make it for the kids at a camp they ran every year where they live in Colorado. It eventually got passed down to my mother and father-in-law, Rhonda and Ed, ...

Chipotle Chicken Chili

September 27, 2017 by Annie Chesson 1 Comment

Let's go to a chili crawl and eat allllllll tha chilis. Have you ever heard of a chili crawl? I hadn't heard of one until this past weekend when there was one going on in town. Basically all the restaurants in this one area all made chili, and you would go from restaurant to restaurant trying the different variations and voting for the best one. Doesn't that sound like fun?! In my wildest ...

Crock Pot White Chicken Chili

April 6, 2017 by Annie Chesson 2 Comments

My dearest Crock Pot, I am grasping onto you for the remaining few weeks that it is acceptable to use you! Soon, warmer weather will be knocking on my front door, and I will welcome it with EXTREMELY open arms, but I will store you away, my Crock Pot friend, until next fall with sadness. One of the very few sad points about winter ending. Emphasis on FEW. I am sooooo ready for winter to be ...

Baked Chili Lime Chicken Breasts

March 9, 2017 by Annie Chesson Leave a Comment

Cooking is hard when life is crazy. I've been told that no one truly understands what "busy" really means until they have kids, and maybe one day I'll agree with that when I have multiple kids, but I still feel like life can get pretty crazy right now. Between teaching, helping with the play, and blogging, sometimes it feels like the days are just going non stop! And that definitely makes cooking ...

21 Day Fix Turkey Chili

February 6, 2017 by Annie Chesson 5 Comments

It’s winter. Chili is a must. There’s just something about making and eating chili during winter specifically that makes my whole body just so happy 😀. It’s a soothing process. Even more so than other stews and soups, but in a different way! Chili is such a hearty, meaty comfort food...and bonus: you are left with leftovers that get better and better in the fridge (one of my favorite parts of ...

Vegan Chili Stewed Chickpeas

June 21, 2016 by Annie Chesson 2 Comments

So basically these last few weeks have been a hey-my-husband-is-finally-home-from-his-deployment-so-let's-celebrate-and-go-out-to-eat-every-three-seconds type of situation. We haven't been eating super badly (with the exception of a few several meals), but it definitely hasn't been kale salad and protein shakes over here. We went to Topeka with my sister-in-law and niece yesterday, so we ate at a ...

Turkey Chili Boats

September 25, 2015 by Annie Chesson 10 Comments

I really can't take credit for these yummy Turkey Chili Boats - it was all Seth. He has talked so many times over the years about this invention he came up with at Wendy's (yes, the fast food place) called "Chili Boats." He is quite proud of it. This is basically what you do: order a baked potato from Wendy's. Order chili from Wendy's. Mix together toppings into the baked potato. Pour in chili. ...

April 27, 2015 by Annie Chesson 32 Comments

Chili? In April? I know...it's not exactly your typical spring dish, but like I mentioned with my Chicken and Rice Soup a few weeks ago, I'm an all year round soup/stew/chili eater. If that's not you, bookmark this delicious recipe and save it for October! Well I was suppooooosed to write this post yesterday, but Seth and I traveled to Savannah, GA this weekend to photograph our friends' ...
