Black Bean Chipotle Chili

First time making a chili from scratch- pleasantly surprised! I forgot to take a picture of the Chili, so I stole borrowed one from the original recipe website:).



The recipe can be found here.

Ingredients:

• 2 tsp canola oil
• 2 garlic cloves, smashed
• 1 cup finely chopped onion
• 1 medium yellow or red pepper, diced
• 1 tbsp chili powder
• 2 tsp cumin
• 1/2 tsp dried oregano
• 2 15-ounce cans of low-sodium black beans
• 2 14.5-ounce can of fire-roasted crushed tomatoes (such as Muir Glen)
• 1 chipotle chile from a can, finely chopped, and 1 tbsp Adobo sauce
• 1/4 cup fresh chopped cilantro
• Nonfat plain Greek yogurt for topping (optional)

Preparation:

Heat oil on medium-low heat in a large pan.

Sauté garlic, onions and chopped pepper until softened. Add chili powder, cumin and oregano, followed by black beans, tomatoes and chipotle chile with sauce.

Bring to a boil, then simmer for 10 minutes. Add cilantro. Simmer for 5 more minutes.

Serve in bowls with a dollop of fat-free Greek yogurt on top and a side of corn bread.
