Here’s an easy to make chili recipe that’s high in protein, moderate in carbs, high in fiber, and low in fat.
Ingredients:
- 1 lb extra-lean ground beef
- 1 can stewed tomatoes
- 1 can low-sodium tomato sauce
- 1 package chili seasoning
- ½ can dark red kidney beans
- ½ can black beans
Directions:
- Brown ground beef.
- Add all the other "stuff."
- Bring to a boil and simmer for 15 minutes.
Option: Top with low-fat or fat-free shredded cheddar cheese.
Duh: Do I need to mention that you should drain the ground beef after cooking it? I didn’t think so. Oh, and drain most of the juice off the canned beans while you’re at it.
