[Exported from: Bachin' when the Wife's out with her friends - v 1.0] My Wife brought home a sausage roll (leftover from her lunch yesterday) from Lexy's, a Famous Fort Wayne, IN Pizzeria. I nuked it, then smothered it in Jim's Mild to Wild Fiery Hot Habanero Sauce. I topped that off with a nice glass of Chianti. Ooh lah-laa :-) Still snifflin from the heat... reelin' from the carbs. Atkins has it so wrong....

Very good and simple to put together - altho' there are 3 steps. It is a crockpot recipe essentially. I used Somersized homemade barbecue sauce for the hickory bbq sauce it originally asked for. I also didn't have chipotle en adobo so i used 1 tsp ground chipotle and put it in with the tomatoes. Recipe Crumbles are frozen texturized vegetable protein that looks like ground meat. If you don't like soy products, use some ground sausage or meat of some kind and cook it before putting it into the c/p. I find the Recipe Crumbles in the frozen section with the other TVP products - Boca Burgers, Morningstar Farms Grillers, stuff like that. it is made by Morningstar Farms. The chili was very good. * Exported from MasterCook * Spicy Black Bean Barbecue Chili (adapted) Recipe By : Betty Crocker Slow Cooker, Feb 2003, p. 52 Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00 Categories : Beans Chili & Stew Crockpot Main Dish Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method -------- ------------ -------------------------------- 1 cup dried black beans -- sorted & rinsed 5 cups water 2 tsp olive oil 1/2 lg onion -- chopped 3 cloves garlic -- minced 2 cups water 7 oz diced tomatoes (1/2-15 oz can) -- undrained 1 tsp ground chipotle 1/2 cup Somersized Barbecue Sauce 1 cup Recipe Crumbles -- frozen 1/2 green bell pepper -- diced sour cream -- for garnish Heat beans and 5 cups water to boiling in large saucepan; reduce heat.
