Tex Mex Chili
- 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1 can low sodium kidney beans
- 1 can diced tomatoes with juice
- 1 medium yellow onion, diced
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1/2 green pepper, diced
- 1/2 cup corn (I use frozen)
- 1 tbsp Cumin (add to taste)
- Dash of cayenne
- Pinch of salt (add to taste)
- Tsp lime juice
- 1 cup water (add to desired consistency - less water results in a thicker chili)
- TOPPINGS: (FOR ONE SERVING)
- Juice from 1/2 a lime
- 1/4 cup diced avocado
- 1 tbsp chopped scallion
- 1-2 tbsp chopped fresh cilantro
- 1 small tomato, diced
- 1 tbsp fat free sour cream
- 1/4 cup fat free shredded cheddar cheese
- Heat the olive oil in a saucepan
- Once heated, add the onions, peppers, garlic and a pinch of salt - cook until onions become translucent and then add the cumin and stir for another minute.
- Add tomatoes, beans, water and reduce the heat to medium-low
- Let cook for at least an hour or until it has reached its desired thickness. I let mine cook for about 2 hours.
- About 20 minutes before you serve, add the frozen corn, lime juice, and the dash of cayenne.
- It makes about 3 cups or 3 servings of chili. Serve in bowls and top it with the condiments. DELICIOUS!
- Each bowl is about 360
