Chilly Day Chili
Make this easy and surprisingly hearty chili with ground chicken or turkey. Simmer 3 hours on stove top, or 8 hours in a slow cooker on Low (3 hours on High).
Ekmek Turkish Bread
Ekmek is a light and slightly sour flatbread that tastes wonderful with Havarti cheese. This Turkish bread recipe uses a starter that ferments for four days. I recommend using a pizza stone to bake the loaves on. If don't have a pizza stone, cookie sheets will work also. The recipe seems complicated, but it's a lot easier than it appears.
Cauliflower Clam Chowder
This healthier take on clam chowder has fewer calories and less saturated fat than the original. Puréed cauliflower and potatoes keep it creamy while celery leaves and lemon zest balance each bite. Other healthy swaps: turkey bacon and low-sodium chicken broth replace regular bacon and clam juice.
