Our favorite gluten-free chili- hearty winter comfort.



FADE IN:

INT. 5TH FLOOR APARTMENT - DAY


A chilly winter light slices into a SANTA MONICA apartment and illuminates every cobweb. (Obviously, a certain individual has been neglecting house work again). Said individual sighs audibly. Glances sideways into the mirror hanging above the kitchen sink cluttered with coffee spoons, grilled cornbread crumbs and half-filled tea mugs. She could never pass for Martha Stewart. Not in a million years.




DISHEVELED GLUTEN-FREE GODDESS


Good gravy. Look at all the dust balls.




STEVE (HUSBAND)



So what. What's a dust bunny or two?


(glancing up from his laptop)


I?ll vacuum later. Or next Tuesday.





DISHEVELED GLUTEN-FREE GODDESS

My hero.


(dragging out the Crock Pot from under the sink)



This calls for chili.

Our Favorite Chili Recipe

We always improvise our chili and no two recipes are ever the same, but this is an approximation of this week's recipe. (Sometimes I'll add sausage. Pieces of organic free-range chicken or turkey would also work. Vegans- use vegetable broth and garnish with chopped herbs, scallions or crumbled corn chips.)

1 tablespoon olive oil
4 cloves of garlic, minced
1 medium red or sweet onion, diced
2 jalape?os, seeded, stemmed, diced
1 large yellow bell pepper, seeded, cored, diced
1 medium green or red bell pepper, seeded, cored, diced
2 medium carrots, sliced into coins
2 cups butternut or banana squash, diced
1 medium sweet potato, peeled, diced
2 cups gluten-free broth
