1 4 oz can of no salt added tomato sauce
1 16 oz can of no salt added diced tomatoes
1 can of no salt added black beans or no salt added Kidney Beans
2 tbsp. McCormics low sodium chili seasoning
First sauté onion, peppers and mushrooms with pam on skillet. Once the veggies are browned, stir in the entire package of Yves meatless ground round for approx. 1 min. The Yves product is pre-cooked so no need to spend more time cooking. Add this mixture to all other ingredients in a large pot and simmer on med-low for about 20 min. Divide servings and store in containers. Easy to make and easy to eat and so good for you!
Not interested in vegetarian chili but want a healthy alternative to chili? Substitute the meatless ground round with 8-12 oz of cooked chicken breast shredded! Still good for you and easy to make.
So many ways to keep this recipe healthy for you! You can always use light ground turkey or ground chicken instead of vegetarian. The key is to replace the saturated fats found in ground beef and reduce the sodium which is what is typically are high in soups, chili, etc. You can still have your comfort foods and be healthy too:) Enjoy
