On cold or rainy days, this comforting dish really fills the tummy. Sometimes I switch up pinto beans for kidney beans or use white rice instead of brown. Add rolls and a green salad, and it's dinner!
Ingredients:
1 tablespoon canola oil
2 celery ribs, chopped
1 medium green pepper, chopped
1 medium onion, chopped
1 can (28 ounces) diced tomatoes, undrained
1 can (16 ounces) kidney beans, rinsed and drained
2 cups cooked brown rice
2 teaspoons worcestershire sauce
1-1/2 teaspoons chili powder
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/4 cup reduced-fat sour cream
2 green onions, chopped
Directions:
1. In a large nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add celery, green pepper and onion; cook and stir until tender.
2. Stir in tomatoes, beans, rice, Worcestershire sauce, chili powder and pepper; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, covered, 7-9 minutes or until heated through. Top with cheese, sour cream and green onions. Yield: 4 servings.
