It Was Time For A Veggie Day

Supper, Tuesday December 13: red beans not NOLA style (small red beans, shallot, chili spice blend); rice; home canned beets and kale; yogurt salsa dip (OTS spice blend).

I mix my own chili powder. I can make a blend with no salt and salt as needed for the recipe. I also make it mild and adjust the heat with the ground chilies that I have. 

Alexis loves beets. In the spring or fall I try to get to the farmers market and get a bag of beets. Grocery store prices for beets are nearly 4 dollars a pound and up. In season at the farmers market I can get a 25lb bag for $18. Now that is a lot of beets, but food preservation is a hobby for me. It's a win-win.
