Today I’m going to show you how to meal prep a healthy, delicious chili. I know you’ve all been waiting for this, you’ve been hearing me talk about that super-delicious, super-healthy double bean chili I’ve been eating and today I’m going to share my super-secret recipe with you. Don’t you feel special?
So here’s what you’ll need. If you don’t have this stuff, just take your phone to the grocery store and I’ll tell you what to buy…
1lb of ground chicken or turkey
I get what’s cheaper, though turkey is 10 calories less per serving and the serving size is actually larger too. By not using beef, we cut our calories in half, keep the same protein, and increase our micronutrient and fiber.
2 cans of diced tomatoes, I like the fire-roasted ones
2 cans of kidney beans
2 cans of seasoned black beans
2 tbsp chili powder, I like to be very generous with this.
4 cloves garlic
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
2 tsp oregano
2 tsp cumin
1 tsp salt
1 tsp Tabasco Sauce
I have to give credit to Betty Crocker. Betty and I go way back. I started with her recipe and made a few modifications.
Here’s what you do:
1. Saute the garlic in the olive oil.
2. Add meat and brown.
3. Add spices and mix well.
4. Add tomatoes and bring to a boil.
5. Reduce to low and simmer covered for 1 hour.
6. Add beans and bring to a boil. cook for 5 minutes.
7. Ladel into containers, 8 servings.
This dish has half the meat and twice the beans of the regular chili, hence the name. It’s great for meal prep, because chili actually gets better when frozen for a while as the ingredients mingle. It’s only 200 calories, so there’s room for crackers if you wish.
Remember this is top secret, so don’t tell anybody!
