Crock Pot Chili

April 24, 2012 by jessfuel 4 Comments

Whenever I ask Nick what he wants me to make for dinner (or lunch), 9 out of 10 times his answer is chili. I’ve made a zillion chili’s, but since I only recently got my Crock Pot, I’ve never made a slow cooker chili! So this weekend, it was time. Before I get to the…

Enchilada Stuffed Shells

March 28, 2012 by jessfuel 1 Comment

I love Mexican food. I love Italian food. And when their powers combine… Enchilada Stuffed Shells! Nothing about these sounded bad. Shells filled with meat and refried beans, covered in enchilada sauce and smothered in melted cheese? Mmmm. They were amazing. Enchilada Stuffed Shells (adapted from BlogChef.net) 15 jumbo pasta shells 1 lb ground beef…

Lasagna Soup

February 23, 2012 by jessfuel 1 Comment

I’m always really intrigued by recipes that take one food and transform it into a different food. Like buffalo chicken burgers, chicken tamale casserole, enchilada meatloaf, crab rangoon dip, carrot cake pancakes. You get the idea. There’s something fun about preparing a familiar food in a new and interesting way. Lasagna soup definitely fell into…

Meaty Portobello Chili

January 23, 2012 by jessfuel 2 Comments

Pulse mushrooms in a food processor until finely chopped. In a large skillet, heat 1 tbsp olive oil over medium heat. Add the mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned, about 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Meanwhile, heat the remaining 1 tbsp olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until golden, about 5 minutes. Add the chili powder and cumin and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add the ground meat and cook, breaking up the meat, until no longer pink, about 3 minutes. Stir the mushrooms, tomatoes, black beans and chickpeas into the chili. Partially cover and simmer until thickened, about 15 minutes. Serve with warm cornbread, cold beer, and sweet, sweet victory!

This Meaty Portobello Chili is sure to please both meat lovers and veggie fanatics alike– made with ground beef, it’s bulked up with ground portobello mushrooms for a savory and satisfying yet nutritious meal! Tornado sirens. Not something you want to hear at 2:30 am. I thought we left that behind in Oklahoma, but I…

Cheesy Chili Mac

January 12, 2012 by jessfuel 2 Comments

It may seem like I’ve abandoned the blog lately, but that couldn’t be further from the truth! I haven’t had time to post anything new because I’ve been spending hours and hours doing some behind the scenes stuff. Jess Fuel is officially free from WordPress.com constraints! Unfortunately, moving included a few hiccups and to keep…

Enchilada Meatloaf

September 22, 2011 by jessfuel 2 Comments

I’m back! As usual, I planned to blog at least a few times during a little vacation… but quickly realized that I just wanted to relax and have fun, and well, it didn’t happen. More on the trip soon! Before I left, I wanted to make something that would produce a lot of leftovers. Nick…

Ravioli and Homemade Bolognese

July 25, 2011 by jessfuel 2 Comments

I often crave sugar. I sometimes crave pizza… or peanut butter… or ice cream. And every once in a while, I crave a big ole glass of a good red wine. It happened late last week, and I knew right away that Friday night dinner would have to be something wine-friendly. In my opinion, there…

July 5, 2011 by jessfuel 5 Comments

Nick and I had the pleasure of spending the holiday weekend at his dad’s house on Table Rock Lake in Missouri. We were in good company with not only his dad & his wife Kelly, but also Nick’s college buddy (and future best man) Andrew and his wife Melinda, who now live in St. Louis….
