Black Bean Pumpkin Chili- serves 4 ( 4 pts)
1 lb fat free chicken breast( I grind my own to save money)
1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
1 can solid pack pumpkin OR 2 c cooked butternut squash
1 large jar salsa
brown ground chicken in a skillet in olive oil and place in crockpot. Add remaining ingredients and cook on low for 4 hours
I serve this in big bowls on top of brown rice with a tossed salad on the side. It makes for a very filling, healthy and fairly cheap meal. I wait until chicken breasts go on sale, buy as much as I can carry and then grind it with my Kitchen Aid mixer attachment. Some I turn into different sausage mixes, and some I just leave to use as ground beef. Using boneless skinless breast is one easy option, but it can be done with full breasts. Removing the skin, fat and bones is an easy task with a sharp knife. The savings to the wallet is substantial, and the savings calorie wise makes it even better.
