Healthy Chili

….the natural detoxifier

You can make this chilli in a crock pot or slow cooker. I always make the chili overnight in my slow cooker.

Ingredients:

1 sweet onion

2 cloves garlic

2 lbs lean ground meat (such as chicken, turkey, beef or pork)

2-4 tbsp Quick and Simple Seasoning Blend or any meat seasoning you have in your kitchen (like Mrs, Dash, salt, pepper, steak spice, or chicken spice)

3 large carrots

3 celery stocks

1 cup green beans

6 cups low sugar tomato sauce

2 cans of three bean medley

2 cups of cooked organic corn

1 cup chopped1Kale (optional)

1 cup chopped Zucchini (optional )

1 cup chopped Mushrooms (optional)

SLOW COOKER

Preparation:

1. Finely chop sweet onion and garlic.

2. Finely chop carrots and celery into ½-inch pieces.

3. Cut green beans into 1-inch pieces.

4. Rinse canned bean medley in a colander

5. Place all the ingredients in the crock pot or slow cooker.

6. Cook on low for 7 hours.

7. Stir occasionally for the first 2 hours. This will break the ground meat so it is not in big chunks.

8. Optional Add: chop kale, zucchini and mushrooms. Add to meat mixture.

9. Stir and cook for 5 minutes.

10. Rinse canned bean medley in a colander

11. Add low sugar tomato sauce and canned bean medley (Yes, it’s a bit of a cheat because it’s not homemade, but we are all busy people.)

12. Mix all the ingredients with a large spoon.

13. Let the sauce simmer on medium heat for 60-90 minutes..
