Chilli Con Carne with wraps, sour cream, fresh red chilli, roasted veg and mixed salad= FIT
This fed 20 of us, including 2nds.
4 x white onions
1 x big bag of mushrooms (I always put these in last so that they don't shrink up too much-like them a bit meaty)
4 x Garlic squashed and finely sliced
2 x Bay leaves
Salt & Pepper
3 x 500g lean packs of minced beef
2 x cans of kidney beans
2 x cans of tin tomatoes
2/3pint of coffee (4 teaspoons of instant will do)
2 x beef stock cubes
1 x big squeeze- the majority of a tube of tomato puree
Generous sprinkle of Sugar
Big handful of Parsley- freshly chopped- add at the end prior to serving
Big handful of coriander- add at the end
2 x fresh red chilli - medium sized so not too hot.
Finely sliced Carrot x 3
Sprinkle of oregano
Sprinkle of cinnamon
Let it all cook away for at least 3/4 hours and just keep checking for seasoning, I'm really bad for not having the right ingredients and just using whatever I have in my cupboards, so as long as you keep testing you should be all good, if you have any left over red wine hanging about this can be good to add, by the time it's been cooking on a medium/low heat for 3/4hours it should be tasting spot on.
Roasted aubergine, courgette, carrots and red peppers...good for adding substance and vitamins to your meal...it was fashion week we were trying to keep it healthy or at least take it easy on the carb front!
This was the veggie version...all of the above minus the meat and oxo cubes...it was a spicy beany onion stew thing.
It went this dark after all the cooking..
All the veg, think I did about 6 batches...was actually at the stove ALL night.
The veggie dish
Packing it up to take to the office.
Easting at my desk...obviously made a mess.
The BOSS!! See people in fashion do eat!!
Going for it!
He really enjoyed it, you can see from his face!!
She was lovin it!
I could actually eat this again, right now!
Seconds.
My seconds consisted of everything but the wrap...couldn't help myself.
We ate this while she tried on clothes and looked like this!!
An actual real life person that looks this good!!
Bit of House of Holland show day behind the scenes.
Another one of the hot models.
This is probably the most least encouraging blog I've done...guessing the models don't help!! It is low in carbs though, and you can get brown wraps now, you can basically eat this and be on a diet...ish!!
