As these last few days before Halloween speed by we may soon get our first frost of the season. Many in the northern states have already waken up to frost or even snow covered yards.
Autumn is a perfect time to enjoy a healthy, warm bowl of chili! Eating healthy is so easy during these cooler Autumn days! Make some extra and enjoy the leftovers all week long! Or whenever you want a quick bowl of great tasting warm chili!
For an easy meal you can prepare in minutes, try this:
In a two or three quart sauce pan, add a few tablespoons of olive oil and turn the burner up to medium.
Swirl the olive oil around the bottom of the pan. ( This keeps the food from sticking and makes clean up a snap! )
Add a couple cloves of pressed or chopped garlic.
Pour in one 16 oz can of chili beans ( Try the Hot ones - they are sure to warm you up! )
Add one little can of Rotel tomatoes. ( diced tomatoes with chopped green peppers )
Add one can of your favorite canned chili. (We use the inexpensive store brand)
Optional - add a hot link.
Cover and heat on a medium or low setting - depending on how soon you want to eat!
Let it cook for at least 10 or 15 minutes. When you start to see bubbles at the top it should be ready to enjoy! ( Or, if you're really in a hurry, toss it in the microwave for 4 minutes. )
Enjoy with cornbread or spoon over grilled brats. YUM!
For a nice Saturday or Sunday meal to enjoy while watch the game try this tasty Three Bean Healthy Chili!
Keep eating healthy and enjoy this wonderful time of year!
Happy Halloween!
