Beans, greens and chicken come together with tomatoes in a thick and creamy broth. This recipe, as with most chili recipes, doesn't need to be exact and can be altered to fit your taste or what you have on hand. The choice of greens is up to you - my first choice is kale, but you can use spinach, turnip greens, collards or a combination (my favorite)! If you use fresh greens, wash and chop them very fine before adding them to the slow cooker.

Salmon Tartare
This salmon tartare is a simple and beautiful way to prepare raw salmon that is a celebration of freshness! The thing I love about this fish dish is the magic worked by the lemon juice that causes a cooked texture on the surface of the salmon whilst leaving the center rare and soft. Delicious served with buttered crusty brown toast.
