Chili to Goulash
January 18th 2012 03:07
Okay, a little over a week ago, I made a HUGE batch of chili to freeze for later use. However, as I was seasoning this chili, the top came off my cayenne pepper as it fell out of my cupboard and landed in the pot of chili. Needless to say, this chili quickly became 5-alarm chili! I froze it into 3 smaller containers, praying that I would find a way to cut the heat before serving it to my children.
Today, our weather turned a bit colder and chili began to sound good. However, I still had no idea how to reduce the heat of the pepper without adding more of everything (which I did not have). So, I decided to wing it, a bit!
I boiled 3 cups of macaroni and added it to the crock-pot with the frozen chili and about 2 teaspoons of sugar and 1 cup of water. This cut down on the heat quite a bit, and with a bit of sour cream for the kids, the meal was entirely delicious! My 2-year-old ate 2 1/2 plates full!!!
I think my next endeavor will be chili cheese potato skins!
