    Beef and Bean Chili
    (Weight Watchers Recipe)

    2 spray(s) cooking spray
    1 pound(s) lean ground sirloin
    2 tsp olive oil
    1 medium onion(s), diced
    2 stalk(s) (medium) celery, diced
    2 clove(s) (medium) garlic clove(s), minced
    1 small jalapeٌo pepper(s), seeded and minced**
    2 Tbsp chili powder
    2 tsp ground cumin
    1 tsp dried oregano
    2 leaf/leaves bay leaf
    1/2 tsp table salt
    1/2 tsp red pepper flakes, or more to taste
    28 oz canned crushed tomatoes
    1 cup(s) canned beef broth, reduced-sodium

    Coat a large stockpot with cooking spray; set over medium-high heat. Add beef; cook until browned, breaking up meat as it cooks, about 5 minutes. Remove beef from pot; set aside.

    Add oil to pot; set over medium-high heat. When oil begins to shimmer, add onion, celery, garlic and jalapeño; sauté until tender, about 4 minutes.

    Add reserved beef, chili powder, cumin, oregano, bay leaves, salt and red pepper flakes; stir to coat vegetables and beef with spices. Add tomatoes, broth, tomato sauce and beans; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer, partially covered, for 30 minutes.

    To serve, discard bay leaves, ladle chili into bowls and top with chopped shallots. Yields about 1 heaping cup per serving.

    chili is so easy to make, just put healthy ingrdients in it, leave out things you would rather not eat. add some seasoning (cinnamon enchances greatly) simmer.

    basicly all you need some kind a meat
    tomatos , spices

    Made this last week and it was fantastic!

    2 1bs of lean ground turkey, browned and drained
    1/2 chopped onion (I cook this with the turkey)
    2 cans of chili beans
    2 cans of Rotelle tomatoes (mild with green chilis)
    2 cans of tomato soup (do not dilute with water)
    2 packets of McCormick Chili powder mix
    Salt to taste

    Put all the ingredients into a crock pot and let cook for 10 hours. This really was easy and delicious!

    You can use canned beans , but try not to, making it as healthy as possible is best. Soak beans over night. I read this recipe somewhere but I have modified it.
    Ingredients:
    1 cup black eye beans
    1.5 cup red beans
    1.5 garbanzo beans
    6 Medium size tomatoes
    3 table spoon tomato paste
    cilantro for garnishing
    1.5 Onion
    6 gloves of garlic
    2 cups chopped celery
    1 small lime * tip microwave lime for 30 seconds, let it sit a bit and the juice will flow right out when you use it.
    1 tablespoon black pepper
    1 table spoon olive oil
    1 teaspoon salt (add to taste)
    1 medium size carrot , chopped however you like.

    In a blender/food processor blend six large tomatoes, the juice of one lime,6 gloves of garlic, 1 cup of chopped celery, a medium onion and tomato paste. (Add hot sauce or chili pepper if you prefer it spicy) In another pot add olive oil and let heat up for a minute and half or until its hot, put in onion and celery, let it cook on medium heat for about 2 minutes and then add your beans, stir and proceed to add your tomato mix from blender/food processor. Stir it all together, and add 2 cups of water, add carrot.If you notice the water is less than the beans add more water. Cook on medium heat for an hour to 1 1/2 hours. Cooking time depends on how well the beans have boiled. If you use canned beans the cooking time will be less. You can also add some the seasoning you have in your pantry, like basil, Italian seasoning and also some parsley. these add wonderful flavors to the chili. Hope I was able to help. Enjoy!
