Today I tried making quinoa and roasted pepper chili, from Cooking Light. It was pretty good, but it took a long time, because I had to roast the peppers myself! Also, I got pepper on my hand when I was cutting the veggies (I thought poblano peppers were not supposed to be that hot), and now two of my fingers are swollen and hurting. Damn you, peppers.
I didn't post a picture of the chili. I took one, but it looked awful. Ben said not to post it because it would scare/disgust everyone. So if you want to take a look you can click the link above and look at Cooking Light's pretty picture!
We added a little brown sugar and also rice vinegar (just a tiny bit of each) to try to perfect the taste. It worked out pretty well. Garnished with cheese, sour cream, and chives. Yum!

I liked this chili a lot! Kristin kindly made a vegetarian one so that I could enjoy it. And this time I finally had my soup crackers to make it great. Chili just isn't chili without those special crackers (even though New Yorkers seem to shun them). Steak 'n Shake taught me this.

Steak and Shakes oyster crackers are so little and skinny it makes me laugh when I see them now.
The things a sister goes through for her sister. Poor burned fingers.
