Halloween Chili

Substitutions are in parentheses. Best made during the last phase of the moon. If that is not possible, just do the best you can in a candlelit kitchen after dark.

1 1/4 lb ground goblin gizzards (ground beef)
1 medium eye of Cyclops (onion)
15 oz Can soft shelled beetles (kidney beans)
28 oz Can blood of bat (V-8 juice)
1/8 t pureed wasp (prepared mustard)
1/4 t common dried weed (oregano)
1 dash of Red-tailed hawk toenails (crushed red pepper)
2 t ground sumac blossom (chili powder)
1 t hemlock (honey or sugar)
1/2 c fresh grubs (sliced celery)
1 T eye of Newt (pearled barley)
1 T dried maggots (uncooked rice)
Water from a stagnant pond (or just regular water will do)

Brown the gizzards in an iron cauldron over a fire made from the siding off of a haunted house. A regular pot and stove can work in a pinch.

Add chopped eye of cyclops and simmer until the pieces of eye become translucent. Add blood of bat, and soft shelled beetles, and bring to a slow bubbling boil.

Add the common weed, maggots, toenails, sumac, grubs, hemlock, eye of newt and the pureed wasp.

As it cooks you may want to adjust the consistency with pond water. You can tell it is done when the eye of newt swells and the vertical tan colored ‘cats eye’ appears on one side.
