I have enjoyed receiving Kraft Foods Canada's formerly free What's Cooking for several years. I have kept every single copy! It was with a bit of sadness to read that they will now be charging for a subscription. The thing is every single recipe in What's Cooking uses one or more Kraft products so in essence the magazine is one big advertisement for Kraft products. I pay enough for Kraft products as it is so will not be paying for a subscription just to find out how to use one of their products. Instead I will be visiting their website for free recipes.
Slow-Cooker Tuscan Chili
modified from: Kraft Canada, What's Cooking (Festive 2011), Pp. 25
1 lb mild Italian sausage
1 onion, chopped
20 oz home canned diced tomatoes
20 oz home canned or fresh cooked white kidney beans
1 green bell pepper
1 yellow bell pepper
5½ oz tomato paste
½ tsp dried basil leaves
½ tsp dried oregano leaves
2 tbsp Italian shredded cheese mix per serving*
Carefully remove the casing from the sausage. Break the sausage into pieces while browning. Drain and spoon sausage into slow-cooker. Chop peppers and onion. Add vegetables, tomatoes and beans to the slow-cooker. Stir well then stir in herbs. Cover and cook on low for 4 hours. Ladle into bowls. Top with shredded cheese. Serve with fresh baked bread and extra virgin olive oil for dipping.
*Shredded Italian cheese mix (brand name or store brand) can be found in the dairy section or you can make your own by combining shredded provolone, mozzarella, parmesan and emmental cheeses.
