On Sunday I used a recipe I'd copied from somewhere to make chicken chili. The recipe calls for boxed broth, but I made my own with a whole chicken, and apparently ended up with too much, because it was more like soup. Still good, especially with the addition of shredded monterey jack, greek yogurt (my first time trying that--now I can see why people are so enthusiastic about it), and a spicy tomatillo salsa that I made and froze last summer. It wasn't as flavorful as I'd hoped, but had a great amount of spiciness. I drank an Old Man Winter (Southern Tier). We also had the brussels sprouts we FINALLY rescued from our satellite garden at Lisa's--we were lucky they were still so delicious! And of course, hippie bread with herb oil. I ran out of whole wheat flour when I was making the bread, so it was more "hippie" than hippie, but it crusted really beautifully and, with oat groats and wheat berries, had a wonderful texture.
