Point Count: Spicy Black Bean Chili
Slightly modified from "Fresh From the Vegetarial Slow Cooker", by Robin Robertson
1 large yellow onion, chopped - 0 pt.
1 red bell pepper, seeded & chopped - 0 pt.
2 cloves garlic, minced - 0 pt.
2 TB chili powder, or more to taste - 0 pt.
1 28-oz. can crushed tomatoes - 0 pt.
2 cans black beans - 6 pt.
1 cup stock - 0 pt.
1 4-oz. can diced green chiles, drained - 0 pt.
Salt & pepper
Toss in a slow cooker and cook on Low for 6 to 8 hours. Garnish with avocado or sour cream.
As is, 6 points total. We will garnish with some avocado (yum) and grape tomatoes, and probably serve over rice.
So as we'll eat it, per serving:
1.5 points for chili
2 points for 1/2 cup of rice
4 points for 1/2 an avocado, chopped
7.5 points per serving.
