Hubby does not eat beans. I would toss the croutons in a seasoning and bake not broil. Otherwise, really yummy.
I haven’t made this yet but I think I will add polenta cubes as is not toasted
can’t add to the planner 🙁
The chili itself was very tasty. I love recipes that have unusual ingredients, and this fit the bill! I did not have date paste, so I substituted two pitted dates.
The croutons did not turn out. There’s no way to make them crunchy with such a short time under the broiler. I was able to rescue them by shifting my oven to convection, thereby dehydrating them. I think they would have been tastier had I sprinkle them with salt before putting them into the heat. Next time, I think I will try tofu instead.
I can’t find tube style polenta in Thailand. Is there anything that would make a good substitute?
just make your own.. its so easy.
Hi,
I can’t find tube style polenta anywhere here in Thailand. Is there anything that would make a good substitute?
I think you could use grits made very thick.
This is delicious, but time-consuming. Since my son has nut allergies, I used a tablespoon of pepitas (pumpkin seeds) and blended them with the tomato sauce instead of using the almond butter.
