Quinoa, Brown Rice Turkey Chilli

The thing about chillis is that they are so damn easy to put together, they taste yummy and it is protein rich. Well the last part depends on what you put into the chilli. I make chilli atleast once in a month because that is the only way that my son and huss take beans. And also I can add all the other stuff that they hesitate to eat into it and they never complain. This chilli is kinda a leftover version. I had some quinoa and some brown rice which couldn't be made into dishes of their own and hence I made this chilli. Warm chilli on a wintery night is bliss I would say.

~*What U Need*~ Quinoa - 1/2 cup Brown rice - 1/2 cup, cooked as per instructions Black beans - 1 can, rinsed and drained (15 oz can) Kidney beans - 1 can, rinsed and drained (15 oz c Corn - 1/2 cup Ground turkey - 1/2 lb Olive oil - 1 tbsp Onion -1 , chopped Garlic - 3, minced Diced tomatoes - 1, 15 oz can Tomato sauce - 1/2 of a can Chilli powder - 1/2 tbsp Cumin powder - 1 tsp Salt, pepper Cilantro leaves - 2 tbsp Juice of 1/2 lime Avocado - 1, diced Sour cream How I Made it: Rinse the qunioa and set aside. Heat oil in a large pan, add garlic and onion and cook till brown. Add the turkey and cook till almost done.

Avocado Egg Salad Sandwich | Sandwich Recipes

Avocados have never been a favorite with the boys of the house. But I make it a point to include avocados in pappu's diet twice a week given the numerous health benefits of the fruit. Did you know that avocado is a fruit??? Well, I didn't and I had to browse to know that. Silly me. I like to incorporate avocados in our diet atleast occasionally and I usually make guacamole with tortilla chips for our evening snacks. When it comes to guacamole the huss never complains but when it is avocado in any other form, he just walks away. So I had to resort to another recipe. And this egg salad is what I came up with. You sub the mayo of a regular egg salad with avocado and job done... a healthy and filling sandwich.

~*What U Need*~ Hard Boiled Eggs – 2 Avocado – 1 Lemon – 1 tsp Salt, pepper - to season Italian seasoning - 1 tsp Garlic powder - 1/4 tsp Honey mustard - to serve Lettuce leaves - 4 Bread of your choice How I Made it: Chop the eggs and avocado. Add 3. Add lemon juice, italian seasoning, garlic, seasoning, salt and pepper. Mix well but donot mash them. Slice the bread. Place the lettuce, top it with the salad, drizzle the mustard sauce. Close the sandwich.

Serve with juice!!!
