Time 1h20m

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 lb ground beef (lean 97/3)
2 (15 ounce) cans pinto beans, drained and rinsed
2 (15 ounce) cans crushed tomatoes
1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce
1 small onion, chopped
1 1/2 teaspoons dried garlic, reconstituted
2 tablespoons chili powder (see note)
1 tablespoon cumin (see note)
2 teaspoons ground red pepper (see note)
2 teaspoons cilantro
2 teaspoons salt
1 1/2 cups water (optional, use as needed for consistancy)

Steps:

  • Cook ground beef and onions together in a skillet until meat is browned and onion is almost clear. If using 93/7 lean ground beef a small amount of oil might be needed to prevent sticking.
  • Combine all ingredients in large pot. Bring to a boil and reduce heat. Cover and simmer for about 1 hour.
  • Note: many variations are possible. Try adding green chilies, cubed potatoes, rice, light or fat free cheddar or whatever you can imagine.
  • NOTE: Calories calculated by this system differ radically from my own. Using the values given on each of the items in the recipe I calculated only 180 Calories per 1 cup serving. 'Zaar might not be adjusting for extra lean groung beef.
  • NOTE: For a milder version reduce chili powder, cumin and red pepper by 1/2.

Tips:

  • Use fat-free ground turkey: This is a lean protein that will help you keep the calories and fat content of your chili low.
  • Load up on vegetables: Vegetables are packed with nutrients and fiber, which will help you feel full and satisfied. Some good options for chili include onions, bell peppers, tomatoes, and corn.
  • Use low-sodium broth: Sodium can quickly add up in chili, so it's important to use a low-sodium broth. You can also use water instead of broth, if you prefer.
  • Add beans or lentils: Beans and lentils are a great way to add protein, fiber, and nutrients to your chili. They also help to thicken the chili and make it more filling.
  • Use spices and herbs to taste: Chili is a versatile dish that can be seasoned to your liking. Some common spices and herbs that are used in chili include chili powder, cumin, garlic, and oregano.
  • Serve with healthy toppings: Healthy toppings for chili include avocado, salsa, sour cream, and shredded cheese. You can also serve chili with a side of cornbread or whole-wheat bread.

Conclusion:

This low-fat chili is a delicious and healthy meal that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is packed with protein, fiber, and nutrients, and it is low in calories and fat. You can customize this recipe to your liking by adding different vegetables, beans, or spices. So get creative and enjoy a bowl of this hearty and healthy chili!
