If you are anything like I am, you love to stay in doors on rainy days!!
On cool, rainy days, I can remember my Nanny making a huge pot of Chili or Potato Soup. To this day I love to have a bowl of potato soup or chili when it is raining outside.

Incase you are wondering there is a simple way to make a small pot of chili to enjoy just 4-6 hours after putting it together. All you need is:
1/2 a pack of the small hamburger meat or ground turkey- COOKED
2 cans of seasoned chili beans
1 can of diced tomatoes- I do not like tomatoes in chili so I only used half a can
1/2 pack of McCormick chili seasoning
Chopped bell peppers and onions
Salt and pepper

Mix those ingredients together, put in a crockpot and cook on low for 4-6 hours or you can cook this on your stove top. The longer chili cooks the better it tastes.

I made a pot of chili like this the other week and it was fantastic!! I used the ground turkey when I made it

Chili is a great, versatile meal. You can make it with ground beef or turkey. You can add vegetables to it if you please. You can also add or subtract the amount of meat, beans or tomatoes you add to the pot.
Once it is finished cooking you can top it with crackers, fritos, cheese or sour cream!
How do you eat your chili?
What is your favorite food to eat on rainy days?
 
The first dish my Nanny taught me to cook was Homemade Macaroni and Cheese.
Every time I prepare this dish it turns out different.
It is very simple to prepare and it is very customizable.

My favorite cheese to use in this dish is sharp and sometimes extra sharp cheese but you can use other types of cheese.
 To customize this dish you can substitute different cheese; for example you can use mozzarella cheese in place of the cheddar cheese.

The recipe for homemade macaroni and cheese can be found under the tab- Recipes! So check it out and if you make it, let me know how it turns out!! Can't wait to hear from  you!
