CARTOON CHILI BOWL RECIPES

Steps:

• Heat oil and sauté garlic and onion until light golden, about 7 to 9 minutes. Add chili powder, sugar, salt, cumin, and bay leaf. Continue cooking, stirring constantly, for 2 minutes.
• Add ground beef and cook, stirring, until evenly browned.
• Stir in tomato paste, beef broth and corn meal.
• Reduce heat to low and simmer until very thick, 15 to 20 minutes. Discard bay leaf.  To assemble, grill them, then split them down the center. Run a line of mustard down the split, then top them with chili and chopped onions.  Makes about 20 servings of hot dog chili on chili dogs.

Steps:

• Melt butter in 5-quart saucepan until sizzling; add ground turkey, onions, green pepper, celery and garlic. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, 12-15 minutes or until meat is browned. Drain off fat.
• Stir in all remaining ingredients except cheese. Continue cooking 10-12 minutes or until mixture comes to a full boil. Reduce heat to low. Cook, stirring occasionally, 30-40 minutes or until flavors are blended. Top each serving with cheese triangles.
