Bachelors Chili


Living by myself has forced me to start being more creative in the meals that i prepare. I can't make the larger dishes like i used to so i decided to improvise...and this was one of the results. I brought this idea up to a friend of mine that is a dietician, and he thought it was a great way to meet most basic dietary requirements.

Steps


Brown beef and drain off the fat.
Place in a crock-pot.
Add tomatoes.
Add beans , corn and remaining ingredients.
Cook in crock-pot until ready for serving.
Now , i keep extra cans of corn and beans next to the crock-pot and as i take a serving , i open another can and add it to the mix.
I have added pinto beans , peas , mushrooms , and whole green chilis as the week progresses and the really unique thing is that by weeks end , the pot you started with only slightly resembles what you have at the end.
I have even thrown in shrimp and diced chicken to the mixture to make it even tastier.
This meal can be left on a low setting the whole week and after a while it will morph into almost a gumbo.
Great to snack on throughtout the day.
