I received an email this morning from a Weight Watchers leader by the name of Cheri Ann Blessum. There were actually 3 recipes. This is one of them: These are the recipes we sampled at our Grand Opening...Linda made the Cheesy Chili Mac & added some garlic powder & cumin so feel free to spice it up however you like. Enjoy-Cherie
Ingredients:
2/3 lb extra lean ground beef
2 medium onions, chopped
1 (29 ounce) can mexican-style stewed tomatoes (undrained)
2 1/2 cups tomato juice
1 (4 ounce) can green chili peppers, diced, drained
2 teaspoons chili powder
1 1/2 cups elbow macaroni
1 (31 ounce) can pinto beans, drained and rinsed
1/2 cup low-fat cheddar cheese, shredded
Directions:
1. Coat a large skillet with cooking spray. Cook ground beef and onion over medium-high heat until meat is browned, about 10 minutes; drain off fat. Stir in undrained stewed tomatoes including juice, tomato juice, chili peppers and chili powder; bring mixture to a boil.
2. Stir in macaroni and beans; return to boiling. Reduce heat, cover and simmer until macaroni is tender, about 15 minutes. Spoon chili into bowls and sprinkle with cheese. Yields about 1 cup of chili and 1 tablespoon of cheese per serving.
