Pork & Beans Chili
Tonight's meal was part 3 using the pork loin that I bought a while back. For $14.98 I was able to make 3 big delicious dinners - Lime-Glazed Pork Loin, Pork Soulvaki, and today's dinner Pork & Beans Chili.
Slowly but surely, I'm trying to get my family to try different types of beans. So far, they only types that any of the 3 of them will eat are green beans and black beans. I used one of my favorites, cannellini beans, in the chili tonight. The pork and beans blended with the tomatoes creating a yummy chili.
Pork & Beans Chili
1lb. boneless pork loin, cubed into small pieces
2 cans stewed tomatoes
1 can diced tomatoes
1 c. water
1 palm full of chili powder
1/2 palm full of cumin
2 big pinches of garlic powder
2 big pinches of onion powder
1 pinch of cayenne pepper
(I apologize for the measurements but I didn't
plan on blogging about this meal until it turned
out so delicious.)
1 lg. can of canellini beans, drained well
In a large frying pan, brown the pork. Remove to a plate and set aside.
Mix together the tomatoes and the water. Pour into a blender and puree until smooth.
Pour the pureed tomatoes back into the large frying pan. Stir in the seasonings. Add the pork.
Stir well. Cover and cook on medium-low for 20 minutes. Stir in beans and continue cooking for 10 minutes.
Serve with warm cornbread.
