Try a New Recipe Tuesday- March 6

Today, I am sharing two recipes: Crockpot Vegetarian Chili and Vanilla Mini-Cupcakes.  What a combo!  :-)))

This recipe is a delicious meatless meal.  We just had it on Friday, as we abstain from meat on Fridays during Lent, but you can have it anytime.  I even found all organic beans the last time I was at the market.  :-)  I served it over biscuits.   I hope your family enjoys it as much as mine does!  :-)

1 15 oz. can kidney beans, rinsed and drained

Hi! I've added your button to the bottom of my post but it keeps coming up "removed or deleted" from Photobucket. :( Not sure how to fix that. I did link up though!

Others have your button with no problems, so it's probably at my end. LOL Just wanted you to know that I am trying to work out the bugs and get it up to share with others. :)
