Skinny Taco Chili (Crock-pot or Stove-top)
From: Nancy Fox @ www.skinnykitchen.com/
This is a fabulous, fiber-rich chili. In fact, each cup contains 9 grams of fiber! It’s so versatile too. Serve in individual bowls and let everyone top their own, stuff a baked potato or top a salad. I love to freeze in individual servings for several quick, weekday meals.
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 8 hours on low heat or 5 hours on high heat
Ingredients for Chili:
1 pound extra lean ground beef or 99% fat-free ground turkey breast
1 (28 oz) can diced tomatoes or 2 (14.5-oz) cans diced tomatoes
1 (15-oz) can kidney beans, rinsed and drained
1 (15-oz) can black beans, rinsed and drained
1 (8-oz) can tomato sauce
1½ cups onion, chopped
1 cup frozen corn, defrosted
1 packet taco seasoning (1-ounce), I like Lawry’s Taco Seasonings or use your favorite
1 tablespoon cumin
1 tablespoon chili powder
Ingredients for Topping, Optional:
Tomatoes, chopped
Reduced-fat cheese, shredded
Corn tortillas, cut into pieces (look for gluten-free)
Onions or scallions, chopped
Instructions
1. For Crock-pot: Brown ground beef or turkey in a large nonstick pan.
Drain any fat.
Add browned meat to crock-pot.
Mix in tomatoes, beans, tomato sauce, onions, corn, taco seasonings, cumin and chili.
Cover and cook on low for 9 hours or on high for 5 hours.
2. For Stove-top:
Brown ground beef or turkey in a large nonstick pan.
Drain any fat.
Return meat to pan.
Place onions in a microwave-safe bowl and cook in the microwave for 4 to 5 minutes, until soft.
Add cooked onions to the pan of meat.
Stir in remaining chili ingredients.
Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer, uncovered for 25 minutes.
3. This chili freezes great.
Serve with optional toppings on the side and let everyone customize their own bowl, if desired.
