Tips
For those following the Weight Watcher Core Plan, this recipe is core.
Directions
Saute beef in a large pot and drain any extra fat (extra has very little to drain). Add onions, garlic and finely chopped zucchini and saute for a minute or 2, then add the remaining ingrediants. Simmer on low for several hours and enjoy. Good to start in the morning on a cold day. May be transferred to a crock pot. I like to top mine with FF sour cream, reduced fat cheese and chives it available.

Fantastic flavor! I made this for my company's 2nd Annual Chili Cook Off and WON! I added Mrs Renfro's black bean salsa, a teaspoon of crushed red pepper, a dash of cumin, and a dash of pumpkin pie spice - and BAM! This is way better then "the same old boring chili", this was perfect with a hint of - 10/31/15

I make this all the time because it is so tasty! I use ground turkey instead of beef, only 15 oz of pinto beans and no Rotel. This brings down the calories so I divide it into 8 servings instead of 12. I also like to dip homemade wheat tortilla chips in the chili to make a filling lunch or dinner. - 2/18/08
