She said she is finally ready to eat rey food. But she wanted soft fries. Yesterday’s lesson with the golden potatoes told me they would be perfect.

I canned this chili January 2025 so it is no longer possible to make it for this price because of the ground beef. At the time I made 12 quarts of chili for $50, that was 28% cheaper than buying canned chili that you know wasn’t even comparable to homemade.

I’m wondering if my canned chili recipe would work with lentils.

Cost per person $2.53 Cost today is probably closer to $2.80

    she wanted soft fries.

    It’s OK to be wrong sometimes, I guess :P

    Does this mean soft as in limp and not crispy? That’s how I took it, but maybe there is another consideration.

      I’m with you. I like mine crispy but she likes hers sad. She was raised in Pennsylvania and that has caused a lot of problems.

    Who is “she” and what is rey?

    Anyhoo, lentils with some crushed walnuts for a little more texture work really well.

    Lentils are probably better if you mean to replace the ground beef, but if you’re looking to supplement it, my favorite addition is hominy.
