Chili Cook Off Recipes

Vegetarian Chili: - Nancy Rezabek

Cook together in a crock pot on low for about 10 hours:

I used 1 cup cooked quinoa for protein, can also use soy crumbles. Quinoa is a grain, you can find it in health food sections of grocery store, or Clovers.

Serve over rice or barley and top with cheese.

Cinnamon Rolls:

Combine in large bowl

Mix well. Then add additional 4 cups flour. Let rise until double, about 1 hour. Divide dough in half, roll each half on a floured surface, about 1/2" thick. Spread each half with 1/2 stick soft margarine and sprinkle on a mixture of 1/4 cup brown sugar and 1 tsp cinnamon. Roll, cut and place into greased pans. Makes about 2 1/2 - 3 dozen. Let rise until double. Bake at 350 for about 15-20 minutes.

You can also make these into sticky rolls by heating together 1 stick butter, 2 T karo, and 1/2 cup brown sugar, spreading in pan and topping with pecans before adding the rolls.
