Bloody Mary Mocktail
Ingredients
32 ounces (4 cups) tomato juice
1 medium-to-large cucumber, peeled and seeded
1 jalapeno pepper ( seeds removed)
2 garlic cloves
Lemon or lime juice
½ teaspoon hot sauce
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Kosher or Sea salt, optional ( for rim of glasses)
Chili powder, optional ( for rim of glasses)
Garnishes (choose any): Celery stalks, skinny carrots with leafy tops, mini bell peppers, cherry tomatoes, dill pickle spears, pickled okra, and/or green cocktail olives (P3) and lemon and lime wedges
Directions
- Add all ingredients to a blender and pulse until smooth.
- If you’d like to rim your glasses with salt, run a lemon or lime wedge around the outside rim. Pour kosher salt onto a small plate (mix in chili powder if you’d like), and roll the wet edge of the glass across the salt at a 45-degree angle.
- Add Ice to glass.
- Pour mix over ice.
- Add garnishes and drink up!
Turkey Chili
Ingredients
1 to 1½ pounds lean ground turkey or buffalo meat
½ cup diced red onion, or more if desired
2 tablespoons fresh parsley or cilantro
1 heaping tablespoon chili powder
1 tablespoon minced garlic
½ teaspoon crushed red chili flakes
15-ounce can white beans
15-ounce can kidney beans (no sugar added)
15-ounce can black beans
15-ounce can pinto beans
15-ounce can lentils or adzuki beans
4 cups chopped zucchini
28-oz can crushed tomatoes
1 teaspoon sea salt
Directions
- Brown the turkey or buffalo meat in a skillet and drain.
- Turn a slow cooker to high setting. Add the meat, onion, parsley, chili powder, garlic, and red pepper flakes to the pot. Stir, cover and set aside.
- Open and partially drain all 5 cans of beans; I leave a little liquid in to make my chili a little juicier. Add the beans, zucchini, and tomatoes to the cooker. Stir well. Keep the cooker set on high for 4 to 5 hours or adjust heat to low and simmer for 6 to 8 hours.
- Stir and taste occasionally, adjusting seasonings as needed. Add the salt just before serving to best preserve its nutrients.
