Vegetarian Bean Chilli


When I found out all my sickness was caused by too much yeast in my belly i was dismayed and excited. This meant that gluten was not the culprit and I could get back to some of my favorite foods soon! It explained why removing gluten was making me feel better and also why I was having adverse reactions to sugar. I felt like I was limited to raw veggies. This week I have had enough, I want a real meal in my belly and Chilli hit the spot!

Ingredients:
1 can mixed beans (or kidney, black or anything you like)
1 can tomatoes (crushed, cubed, whole but squished)

2    stalks celery
1/2 onion chopped
      garlic cloves to your liking
1    green pepper

GF chilli seasoning (watch for cornstarch)


Brown all the veggies in a pot on the stove. The pour in the can of beans and the canned tomatoes. Pour in the chilli seasoning. I get mine in bulk and add as much as I like the taste of. Cover with a lid and let simmer for at least an hour.

Ta-Daaa! All done! You can add any veggies that you like that are "safe". You can also add ground meat. On my yeast-free diet I am only allowed chicken and fish so I love adding ground chicken to this. When I don't have to be so careful about my sugar intake I add carrots, coloured peppers and mushrooms.

Feel free to pop this all in the slow cooker and leave to cook while you are at work. Great meal to come home to!

Delicious, healthy and inexpensive! Perfect!
