Carol's Favorite Vegetarian Chili Recipe

Recipe Ingredients

1 large onion, chopped
3 garlic clove, crushed & pressed
2 tbsp oil
1 celery rib, diced
1 1/2 tsp chili powder
1 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
1 cup tomato, chopped
2 tbsp tomato paste
4 cup beans, kidney, black, pinto and/or, garbanzo, cooked
1/2 lb tofu, crumbled (opt)
1 1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp oregano

Recipe Preparation

Saute onion and garlic in oil until onion is soft. Add celery and
spices. Saute another 2-3 minutes. Add tomato and paste. Mash 2 cups
of the beans and add beans and tofu to the pot along with the salt
and oregano. Simmer 30 minutes.

To cook raw beans:

Soak beans in water overnight, OR boil for 2 minutes and let sit,
covered, for 1 hour. Bring to a boil in same water and simmer about
1 hour or until tender. (beans approximately double in volume, i.e.,
two cups raw = 4 cups cooked)

Notes: I like cooking my own beans rather than buying canned beans.
: I use as many different beans as I have at home. Usually at
: least 3 of the 4 mentioned, and one of the 3 must be black
: beans because they are my absolute favorite.
: Add or subtract cayenne pepper for hotness level.
: A bit more cumin may be good too, I have yet to determine
this,
: though.

In deciding on a meal plan, it is essential to also make sure you cut down your ingestion of refined carbohydrate, fat and salt.
The problems associated with low carbohydrate diets
Its popular as hell, but it is truly safe for you?
Eliminating carbohydrates may mean missing out on necessary nutrients from healthy carbohydrate foods which must be part of any sensible diet, specifically those provied by fruits, vegetables and whole grains.
Moreover, it has been hypothesised that the kidneys can come under too much strain and that the related change in blood acid levels causes bone damage, but some of the medical studies testing the theory have found no evidence of damage to the kidneys or loss of bone.
Foods containing carotenes
(includes paprika, mangos and winter squash)
These colorful foods are rich in carotenes thought by doctors to play a role in helping prevent cancer, spefically cancer of the stomach and lesophagus. Many also have a low calorie count, so should be included in every diet.
