Quick & Easy Chili

Since the weather is cooling down and honestly the nights are just plain cold, I figured it was a good time to make some chili for dinner. I'm taking a college course, my kids are in school/daycare, military spouse volunteering and then of course a house to keep up; things are just too busy for a long drawn out meal. I like quick and easy meals so this chili is the perfect option. Did I mention it's also delicious and 21 Day Fix approved?!?! 

Ingredients:

• 2 tsp. extra-virgin organic coconut oil, melted
• 1 medium onion, chopped
• 1 medium green bell pepper, chopped
• 1 medium yellow bell pepper, chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
• 1 lb. 93% lean grass-fed ground beef (or 93% lean ground turkey breast)
• 2 15 oz cans of beans, drained & rinsed (I used 1 can of northern & 1 can of black)
• 1 15 oz can organic diced tomatoes, no salt added
• 1 cup red wine 
• 1 Tbsp. ground chili powder
• 1/2 tsp. sea salt
• 2 tsp. crushed red pepper

Directions:

1. Heat oil in large saucepan over medium heat.
2. Add onion and bell peppers. Cook until onion is translucent; stirring occasionally. Should be around 5 to 6 minutes.
3. Add garlic and cook for about 1 minute; stirring occasionally. 
4. Add meat, beans, tomatoes (with liquid), wine, chili powder, salt, and red pepper. Stir it together and bring to a boil. Once it's boiling, reduce the heat and allow it to gently boil for around 20 or so minutes; stirring occasionally. I actually let mine boil until it was done then set it on low heat until we were ready to eat. 

If you are following the 21 Day Fix meal plan then this recipe will make 6 servings and each serving will be 1/2 green, 1 yellow, 1 red and 1/2 tsp.  

I adapted this recipe from the Fixate Cookbook which you can purchase here for 101 21 Day Fix approved recipes.
