i bring this to potlucks all the time:
easy low-fat chili
1 medium onion, chopped
1/4 cup chopped green pepper
4 cups water, divided
1 can (15-16 oz) great northern beans, rinsed & drained
1 can (15 oz.) navy beans, rinsed & drained
1 can (6 oz.) salt-free tomato paste
1 can (14 1/2 oz.) low-salt diced tomatoes, undrained
2 to 4 tsp. chili powder
1 tsp, salt (optional)
1/2 tsp. pepper
In a large saucepan, cook the onion and green pepper in 1/2 cup water
until tender. Add beans, tomato paste, and tomatoes. Stir in chili
powder, salt if desired, pepper and remaining water; bring to a boil.
Reduce heat, cover & simmer for 20 minutes. (Mandy's note: After it
boils, I put the chili in the crock pot on high until we're ready to
eat.) Yield: 7 servings
