Put beans in big pot. Cover with 3x as much water. Bring to a low boil. Boil for 5 minutes. Turn off and let sit while you go pick up your car from the shop, make dinner, and get the kid ready for bed. <br />
Before going to bed drain the beans, put in the crockpot on low. Cook on low about 12 hours or overnight.<br />
In a big pot cook the beef and vegetables until beef is browned, salt & pepper the beef.<br />
Add beans (not the cooking liquid) to the pot. Cover with fresh water.<br />
Add a lump of beef broth paste. Add 21 season salute to taste.<br />

brown: <br />
1 pkg lean ground turkey (we tried to find ground lamb but our local ethnic butcher was out of it)<br />
<br />
chop and add to turkey and cook a bit: <br />
2 small red onions, finely chopped<br />
<br />
Add to food processor:<br />
2 cloves garlic<br />

To taste: cumin, oregano, thyme, paprika, cayenne, tumeric, kosher salt, fresh cracked pepper<br />
<br />
add turkey & onions to food processor and process (in batches if necessary) until it is a goopy paste<br />
<br />
Spread turkey paste on to:<br />
Flatbread (we bought lavash from the ethnic market but might try thicker round flat bread or Naan from TJ's next time)<br />
<br />
Bake in 350+ oven until edges are crisp. Serve with salad on top or on the side.<br />
<br />
Salad:<br />

<li class="plaincharacterwrap ingredient">1/3 cup lemon juice </li>
<li class="plaincharacterwrap ingredient"> 1 teaspoon ground cumin</li>
<li class="plaincharacterwrap ingredient"> 2 teaspoon dried oregano flakes</li>
<li class="plaincharacterwrap ingredient"> 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper</li>
<li class="plaincharacterwrap ingredient"> 2 teaspoon kosher salt</li>
<li class="plaincharacterwrap ingredient"> 1 bunch cilantro</li>
<li class="plaincharacterwrap ingredient"> 1 cup grapeseed (or your favorite high smoke point) oil</li>
</ul>Whiz all ingredients together in a blender. Pour over chicken (fabulous on super cheap chicken leg/thigh quarters) and marinate for 4+ hours. On a hot grill sear over direct heat for 3 minutes per side and then grill at a lower temp/indirect heat until 170 degrees (about 1 hour). Let rest for 10+ minutes. Super fabulously juicy and delicious. Great on corn tortillas with <a href="http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/bobby-flay/jicama-slaw-recipe/index.html">Bobby Flay's Jicima Slaw</a>. Yum!<br />
<br />
This marinade made enough to cover big 10 chicken quarters divided into 3 gallon size bags.<br />

<br />
a dozen stuffable mushrooms<br />
1/2 lb Italian sausage<br />
1/4 red pepper<br />
1/4 cup red onion<br />
2 green onion <br />
small handful of parsley<br />
1 egg, whisked<br />
2 T+ almond meal<br />
garlic salt<br />
fresh cracked sea salt & black pepper<br />
<br />
Remove the stems from the mushrooms, mince mushroom stems and all other veggies. In a little olive oil cook the red pepper, red onion, green onion, mushroom stems for a few minutes. Add sausage and cook until cooked through. Add parsley, garlic salt and fresh cracked salt & pepper to taste. Put aside to cool.<br />
Mix egg and almond meal to sausage-veggie mix. Add more almond meal if needed so the mix starts to sort of stick together. Spray a cookie sheet with olive oil and set up mushrooms. Spoon filling in to mushrooms, packing down and mounding the filling on top. Cook in a 400F oven until golden brown (about 20-25 minutes).Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3164114131556668874.post-35440334511426642852011-01-09T13:00:00.000-08:002011-01-09T13:00:44.557-08:00Pizza "crust"1 egg, beaten<br />

Mix together and scoop in to a medium frying pan coated with olive oil. Flatten. Cook until browned on the bottom and then carefully flip with a large spatula. When cooked through move to a cookie sheet and add toppings (pesto, red pepper, red onion, olives, mushrooms, prosciutto).
