All I've really had today was turkey, albeit a pound of it (smoked) ...

I might be prematurely optimizing, but I figure we'll melt some cheese on the chips real quick before spooning the beef to try to keep the chips from getting as soggy as quickly? ...

Think I'll audition JHP's jala powder ...

Any tips?
 
OK I have been watching this thread for a while and thought that tonight is the night to add to it..

1. I am drunk
2. I am cooking
3. I am cooking with chilli

I am making some Chilli wedges and mexican inspired chilli pies with sour cream.
all on the fly.

Start off with a drunk messy kitchen

Mix your favourite chilli with wedges, paprika, salt, pepper, olive oil.. in this case I used my own dried cayenne chilli with dried habanero powder.

I made some egg and spicy chorizo and chilli pies

get your beef mince on, onion garlic, chilli , chilli powder and any leftover salsa, kidney beans etc.

the nacho consumption got the better of us ... we drank and ate piggishly ...

seriously, it was ugly on the scale this morning ...

backtracking, though ...

the smell of onions and cumin got to me while i was programming, so i had to peek ...
