I love Wendy's chili. I had a recipe before that claimed to be Wendy's but they used Tomato juice. It worked quite well but my next adventure to obtain the perfect Wendy's chili at home will be this recipe.

lbs ground beef1 (29 ounce) can tomato sauce

1 (29 ounce) can kidney beans (with liquid)

1 (29 ounce) can pinto beans (with liquid)

1 cup diced onions (approx 1 medium onion)

1/2 cup diced green chili peppers (approx 2 chilies)

1/4 cup diced celery (approx 1 stalk)

3 medium tomatoes chopped

2-3 teaspoons cumin powder

3 tablespoons chili powder

1 1/2 teaspoons black pepper

2 teaspoons salt

2 cups water

Brown ground beef and drain off fat.

Combine all ingredients in a large pot.

Bring to a simmer and cook, 2-3 hours, stirring frequently (although not constantly).

Since I am the only one outside of Bender's family who probably had some of these SW Eggrolls, I gotta say they are awesome. :cool:

Arby's has some new Southwest Mini Eggrolls.

I tried them. They're ok but nowhere near as good as yours, Bender.

You still need to get them on the menu at Gambino's somehow.

Anything involving avocados and jalape?os is all right by me.

I tried these a while back at an actual Chilis establishment.

Made me so sick.

Do you enjoy throwing up every five minutes, Claude?

I'm a big advocate for the jalapeno and avocado, but the very thought of eating in a Chilis again shivers me timbers.

I'd rather make it at home. I went once many years ago, and didn't care for it. I decided to give it another shot a few months back, and still thought it tasted like ***.

Being a swinging **** and a tomcat, I eat most of my evening meals in the company of a ladyfriend. Nothing worse than being on an impromptu date, eat a seemingly decent meal, and then suddenly get a **** cramp while watching "What Happens In Vegas" on her couch.

Hey Phreak!

These are GREAT! I got this recipe off of Recipe Goldmine (copycat recipes) about 5 years back and they've been a huge hit.

The recipe I got gave me the recipe for the avacado ranch dip, so you don't have to go out and buy ranch if it don't live in yer fridge. (the only dressing my fridge houses is Blue CHEESE!)

Avocado Ranch Dipping Sauce

1 Avocado

1/2 cup mayonnaise

1/2 cup sour cream

2 Tbl Buttermilk (since I never have this, I just add in bit more sour cream)

3 Tbl white vinegar

1/4 tsp salt

1/4 tsp dried parsley

1/4 tsp onion powder

dash of dried dill weed

dash of garlic powder

dash of pepper

...

Recipe also tells to deep fry the egg rolls at 375 degrees for 12 -15 min. I find 12 minutes does the trick.

They do need to be fully frozen so they cook properly and don't fall apart.

When I make these, I 8 - 10X the recipe or more, take an afternoon to brew up a huge batch and then I have them ready in the freezer whenever I want them.

After that...all you need to do is heat up the oil and 12 minutes later you're eating them.

You could get quite an a$$ on yourself with these suckers. But they're just about my favorite Unhealthy deep fried food.

Yay!

I'm actually still looking for a better brand of tortilla to use on them. I'll freeze mine a few days and sometimes I'll still get that bloating and puffing.

As for the avacado dip. I have a perfect fix for that, I use our ranch dressing from the store, which is made fresh every other day. I just take that and mix it with mashed avacado and it's a perfect dip. I tried it by using just a bottle of ranch and some avacado and some garlic powder but it lacked the flavor of the stuff we have.

I can vouch for Bender's dip. It's great just like his SW eggrolls. Again thanks for the grub, bud. ;)
