I had leftovers in my fridge from the week – that I decided to throw together into a quick chili!
Leftover Black Beans, corn, onions, cooked boca crumbles–
This was ready in about 15 minutes and serves 4 people. The serving size is 3/4 cup and the calories using the recipe builder on My Fitness Pal is:
This was perfect for an afternoon snack – or it would also be amazing on a baked potato – served with tortilla chips – as a topping for nachos (just add the calories for those!)
Quick Chili
This is a great way to use up leftover veggies or protein - turn it into chili by adding canned Tomato Sauce, chili powder, cumin.
