For a simple, speedy recipe, this chili has the rich flavor of one that has simmered a lot longer. Set on the table in the unique heart-shaped bread bowl, it's an especially hearty main dish. —Kay Curtis, Guthrie, Oklahoma
Ingredients:
1 pound ground beef
1 cup chopped onion
1 can (16 ounces) kidney beans, rinsed and drained
1 can (15 ounces) tomato sauce
1 can (14-1/2 ounces) diced tomatoes, undrained
1 tablespoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
bread bowl:
1 tablespoon cornmeal
2/3 cup water
1/4 cup butter, cubed
1 cup king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
2 teaspoons baking powder
4 eggs
Directions:
1. In a saucepan, brown beef with onion; drain. Add next five ingredients; simmer, uncovered, for 20 minutes. Grease a 9-in. heart-shaped or round baking pan; sprinkle with cornmeal and set aside. In a saucepan over medium heat, bring water and butter to a boil. Add flour, Parmesan and baking powder; stir until a smooth ball forms. Remove from heat; beat in eggs, one at a time. Continue beating until the mixture is smooth and shiny. Spread into prepared pan, building up edges slightly. Bake at 425° for 25-30 minutes or until the center is firm and puffed and edges are golden brown. Make a shallow slit in the center to allow steam to escape. Cool for 5 minutes before removing to a serving plate. Fill with chili; serve immediately. Yield: 6 servings.
