    I try to stay away from chili but I would recommend turkey meat and easy on the beans.

    This is copied from an email I got from Beach Body a long time ago. I've made it a few times, since my husband and I rarely eat meat and it was really good.

    This recipe is great for vegetarians and spice addicts. The beans and veggies give it a great fiber profile. Plus the more you spice it up, the more you can boost your metabolism.

    2 tsp. olive or canola oil
    1 cup onion, chopped
    1 cup green bell pepper, chopped
    4 cloves garlic, crushed
    1 28-oz. can crushed tomatoes
    3/4 lb. canned pinto beans, rinsed and drained
    3/4 lb. canned white pinto beans, rinsed and drained
    Chili powder to taste (about 2 Tbsp.)
    1 tsp. oregano
    1 tsp. cumin
    1/2 tsp. salt

    In a nonstick pan, sauté onion, green pepper, and garlic in oil over medium heat for 6 to 8 minutes; cook until tender. Add remaining ingredients and mix well. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Cover, reduce heat to medium/low, and simmer for 30 minutes, stirring several times. Makes 6 servings.

    Preparation Time: 10 minutes

    Cooking Time: 30 to 40 minutes

    I don't follow any recipe when I have made it, but use ground venison instead of beef since its leaner.

    The one I make for lunch is pretty good and easy and 224 calories without meat (makes 4 1 Cup servings)

    1 can Great Value Chili tomatoes
    1 onion
    1 Tbsp garlic
    1 can kidney beans
    1 can Mexicali / Southwestern corn
    1 can tomato juice
    1 can green chilies
    1 Tsp Chili powder (this can be changed to increase spiciness)

    Brown the onions in a pan. Drain and rinse the beans and corn. Put all the ingredients in a big stock pot on the stove and simmer on low for about 20-30 min. Eat or put in containers.
