Preparation:
* use crushed tomatoes with added puree. Cook and stir garlic, peppers,
mushrooms and onions in oil 5 minutes or until vegetables are tender. Add
tomatoes, tomato sauce, chili powder and cumin. Heat to a boil. Reduce heat
to low, add beans, zucchini, and corn. Simmer 15 minutes or until
vegetables are tender. Makes 8 servings.
Notes/Hints: For fat free, spray vegetables with Pam and omit oil, thus
"wilting" them instead of cooking in oil. Wilt means using little heat and
covering the pan. Also, because of use of canned vegetables, this recipe
may not be suitable for those on a low-sodium diet. Suggested toppings for
chili: non-fat sour cream, non-fat cheddar cheese substitute, and chopped
scallions. |
