Chili Con Carne Recipes

Families have gone to war over chili recipes! I love a thick, meaty chili with loads of beans and vegetables. Thankfully my family agrees!

Spicy, low fat chili

This chili is not for wimps! If you are looking for a mild, watered down chili, this is not the one! No! No! This chili is thick, spicy and delicious!

Wonderful over brown rice, with a side vegetable and a glass of skim milk!

I like to serve this with a topping of low fat greek yogurt (or sour cream), low fat grated cheddar cheese and thinly sliced green onions. This is also great on a green salad to make a "taco" salad meal.

A hearty supper!!

A hearty, meaty, beany chili with a kick... but without the calories or chunks of veggies!

This is good on a cold night you can add cheese and eat with french or cornbread but add the extra calories in your tracker for the cheese

A simple, easy recipe that can cook while you're out (or doing something more interesting!).

Yield: 4 generous-sized servings
Prep time: 10 - 15 minutes
Cooking time: 2.5 hours

My family loves this served with Scoopers and/or cornbread!

Chili con carne

Chili Con Carne made with fresh, ground pork sausage
High fiber, high protein, hearty, and delicious!

Not your average chili, but still wonderful for those friend and family get-togethers or just when it's cold and/or rainy outside! This is made with some of the usual suspects, however the "meat" (i.e. ground beef) is replaced with a pre-cooked Soy "Meat" substitute that is juicy and tender and, with the right seasonings, tastes JUST like the real "meat" deal if you happen NOT to be a vegetarian! I am not vegetarian, however I made this recipe to cut down on the fat and calories from the traditional ground beef version. It's yummy and full of protein and my Chili Connoisseur Husband can't even tell the difference!

This chili is a comforting and much healthier version of many chili recipes.

You can add peppers to this if you like...we don't. Good basic chili. Not too spicy. Kids like it. Apparantly this was Pocahantas's recipe (I would not put it into a history book though).

Makes approx. 12 cups (1 cup = 1 serving)

Easy chili

This is a family favorite, especially as it becomes cold outside. We top each bowl with a bit of sharp cheddar cheese and it just makes the chili that much richer!

We like things spicy, so this is how I make it. I don't expect anyone to make it this way. I typed it up because my husband and I need to count our sodium and carbs and this was the only way I could post it on my meal plan. If you make this, you may want to use a packaged spice mix instead.

Wholesome, filling, comfort food that is good for you. Makes a great vegitarian chili, just delete the mince and prepare as noted.
