@liamkincaid thank you

For chili: I usually use this recipe as inspiration for my chili, but omit the oil and tone down the chili powder as needed. I do like adding in bell peppers and just use more celery and carrots then recommended and dried rather than canned beans.

I have cooked soup and frozen flat in freezer bags, but I like this so much better! Thank you for sharing!!!

To cut the plastic, get silicone freezer molds. I swear by them! I make a big pot of whatever and then freeze individual portions so I can thaw one bit at a time. Also does wonders for freezing bone broth!

Wow, how did you turn Mujadara into a soup?! I never heard of that

 

[liamkincaid]

@zacheus62 maybe stew is the better word?

 

[zacheus62]

@liamkincaid the authentic Mujadara is just a rice pilaf with lentils and topped with crunchy onions.
Salute on making a Mujadara soup though! That’s cool haha

 

[liamkincaid]

@zacheus62 I was originally served it just as lentils with onions on top at a restaurant, but then started making it sort of as a very thick all in one stew. I have seen recipes with rice in it before that I modeled it after. I love the crunchy onions, but make most things in one pot. Sorry if that isn't how it's meant to be served.
