Shirley's No Leftovers Dinner

Ingredients

  • 1 packet Backwoods Bound Chili Seasoning Mix
  • 15-16 oz small black beans (cook our own, but canned is fine.)
  • 1/2 cup chopped onions
  • 1/4 cup chopped garlic
  • 2 lbs ground turkey
  • 32 oz. medium-size shrimp, cooked, peeled and deveined
  • cooked rice, optional
  • shredded cheddar cheese, optional

Instructions

If using dry beans, cook them per package directions. Add 1/4 of the chili seasoning mix when almost done.

If using canned beans, simmer them in a pot with 1/4 of the chili seasoning mix while preparing rest of the recipe.

Cook onions slowly in a little extra virgin olive oil. Let cook at least 20-30 minutes, folding in the chopped garlic.

In a large, slightly oiled skillet, mix the turkey with 3/4 of the seasoning mix. Fold in cooked onions and garlic.

Simmer until turkey is done. Stir this mixture into the cooked beans. Simmer for 5 to 10 minutes.

After cooking and while still hot, stir in the shrimp.

Serve as is or over rice. Sprinkle on some shredded cheese if desired.

Enjoy!
