Comment on Black Bean Chili with Butternut Squash by kgibson2414

Thanks Bud! For the 7-layer dip turkey chili, I first sweat some onion. Then add a little small-diced red pepper and jalapeno, then garlic. Then add the turkey and cook most of the pink out it. Drain if its liquid-y then put back in pan. Then add whatever chili powders I feel like using – sometimes a mixture of ancho chili powder and mexican chili powder, plus cumin, salt, pepper. If you want it smokey you can add minced chipotle. Taste and adjust from there. That’s a very basic recipe – that I like for the layer in the 7 layer dip. On its own you could add more sliced bell peppers or mushrooms.

Looks awesome! I’ll make it soon – I love chili… and squash! Also – I’ve been meaning to ask you – how do you make your turkey chili? It was a layer of your 7 layer dip for the superbowl – but it was delish. How do you prepare that one?

This was soooooo delicious…… i know that the bechamel sauce with the infused milk really added to the taste, as did the fresh sage…. this is an inspired idea….. adding roasted butternut…….. mmmm good… thanks

Hi Jess. For me, this is one of those dishes that is so worth it I don’t worry about calories when I’m eating it, which with a dish like this is like once per year. It’s like one of my favorite food authors, Michael Rulhman says “Fat does not make you fat. Eating too much makes you fat.” But certainly, there are things you can do to reduce, like skip the ricotta in the filling or replace the whole milk with low-fat in the bechamel. You won’t get the same outcome but you may enjoy it just the same. You need a ‘sauce’ in there or the noodles won’t soften, so if its not bechamel then maybe this dish isn’t for you. As for calorie counts – I don’t have the time, know-how or inclination to calculate nutrition facts for all of the recipes I share here – but feel free to try and calculate that for yourself using the internet if you like!

This looks gorgeous. I’d much rather eat this than any meaty lasagne!

This does look really good Kim! Any suggestions on how to make it less caloric? What could be put on top if you’re not a fan of bechamel? (I’d love to know the calories of each of your recipes if you can figure out a way to list them.)
