What’s for Dinner Tonight?

A little cooler this week, so I made chili (as requested by a kid). I used ground turkey as Aldi had it for under $1/lb. I had made, and froze, some pinto beans a few weeks ago, so threw those in there and let it cook all day. DH is having some of his leftovers from a mexican restaurant the other night. Kids are both at work. So - chili will go into the fridge to serve as dinner the rest of the week.

We use ground turkey for our chili too, and I like it much better! And, thanks for the post, now I can add this to our meals for next week!
 

We had a major storm last night.....started as dust.....you couldn't see anything through it (dust storms are not unusual here, but this was a very severe one). Then the thunderstorm came and it poured and poured and flooded parts of our backyard. I do love rain but this was intense and the wind that came with it was bad. One lightning sounded like it hit something very close.
Airport had to close for a couple of hours, people lost power for a longer time than usual (They have to get power back ASAP because of how hot it is). Trees down everywhere (luckily we only have one big one and it is fine). At least 7 sirens driving on the main road in about a 15 minute time.....not sure what was going on with that.

So this morning it seems like it should be cold out. but it isn't. Cooler than usual though. High 90s. But overcast and more rain due.

Dinner will be Meatloaf, gnocchi, bok choy and bagged salad for dinner tonight.

Adding...this is what a haboob looks like

Wow! That would be a scary sight coming at you.

There was a story on national news the other night about a huge dust storm in AZ. I think it was during a huge festival of some sort.
