Ingredients

• Servings: 14
• 1 1/2 cups dried black beans
• 1 1/2 cups dried red kidney beans
• 1 (16 ounce) can sweet potatoes
• 3 cups dry lentils
• 1 lb ground turkey
• 2 lbs chicken gizzards
• 2 1/2 cups brown rice
• 2 1/2 cups rice
• 2 cups oats
• 1 lb frozen spinach
• 1/2 lb frozen carrots
• 1/2 lb frozen peas
• 2 cups blackstrap molasses
• 2 (6 ounce) cans tomato paste
• 1/4 cup flax seed
• 3 cups powdered milk
• 1 banana
• 1/4 cup soybean oil

Recipe

• 1 cook the beans and the rice until they are nice and soft. for this step, i usually use a slowcooker-add beans, rice, and enough water to cook(this filled up mine completely, so i really didn't bother to measure.) no soaking necessary, just let them cook for about 4-5 hours.
• 2 mince chicken gizzards. again, gadgets make life easy here-i recommend a food processor.
• 3 pour soybean oil into a very large stockpan. add gizzards and turkey. simmer until meat is cooked.
• 4 add lentils, oats, approximately 4 cups water(i eyeball this also), and simmer until lentils are soft, about 15 minutes.
• 5 add everything else, simmer til veggies are heated through.
• 6 mix beans and rice with meat and vegetable mixture, put in large container to go in fridge or divide into smaller portions and freeze some for later.
