All Natural, Low Sodium Chili

This was one of the best freezer meals! It takes "chili is better the next day" to a new level! Chili is better after 3 weeks!

Chili
1 pd. ground turkey
1 pd. %96 lean, all natural ground beef
3 cups of beans
1 28oz can low sodium tomatoes
15 oz can low sodium tomato sauce
4 cups of organic beef or vegetable broth
1 cup diced peppers
1 diced onion
4-5 cloves of garlic, minced
chili powder, celery seed, cumin, oregano, paprika, cayenne, black pepper, coriander to taste

Brown meat with onions and garlic in a large pot. Add the rest of the ingredients and simmer for 45 minutes. Let cool and place in freezer bags. This will make 2 freezer meals for 4 people. To serve just thaw and heat.

Homemade Whole Wheat Rolls
3 cups whole wheat flour
1/4 cup organic cane sugar
1/4 canola oil
1 TBSP yeast
1/2 very warm water
1/2 very warm milk
1 egg white

Mix 2 cups of flour, the sugar, oil, and yeast in a medium bowl. Add warm water, milk, and egg white. Beat with a mixer on low. Add the rest of the flour, mix until it's easier to handle. Put on your bonnet. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5 minutes. Add flour as needed if it becomes sticky, up to another 1/2 cup. Return to the bowl. Coat slightly with canola oil and cover with plastic wrap. Allow to rise to double it's size. Spray a muffin pan with canola spray. Punch down the dough and form 1 inch balls. Place 3 balls per muffin cup. Cover again with plastic wrap and let rise again to double their size. Bake at 400 degrees for 12 minutes
Enjoy!!!!
