One of our favorite dinners is Chili, Cornbread, and potatoes. This is super healthified. I have really learned a lot over the past few years about how to replace the unhealthy stuff with the healthier options. This meal was so satiating! When your body gets the nutrition it needs, you feel satisfied much sooner than you would if you were eating unhealthily.
Chili
In a non-stick pot add:
1 Tbsp. Coconut oil
1/2 Red onion, chopped
1/2 C. Carrots, chopped
1/2 C. Celery, chopped
1/4 C. Green onion, chopped
Cook for around 10 minutes, or until onions are translucent.
Then add:
1 small can green chilis
15 oz. Cans of Black, Great white Northern, Pinto, and Kidney Beans drained
1 small can tomato sauce
1 tomato, chopped
1 tsp. Chili Powder
1 tsp. Garlic Powder
1 tsp. Italian Seasoning
Salt & Pepper to taste
Stir well. Cook for 20 minutes.
To give it a kick you could add: Cayenne Pepper, cocoa powder, or Cinnamon.
Top with a bit of cheese (Optional).
Corn Bread
In a bowl add:
1/2 C. Coconut Sugar
1 1/2 C. Freshly Ground Wheat Flour
1/2 C. White Flour
1 tsp. baking powder
1 C. Cornmeal
2 Organic Farm Fresh Eggs
2 C. Silk Coconut Milk
3 Tbsp. Melted Coconut Oil
Pour into a greased (with coconut oil) 9X13 baking dish.
Bake at 400 for 15-20 minutes.
Yummy Spread
Mix equal parts of Almond Butter & Raw Honey. Then add 1 tsp. Vanilla extract. Stir well.
This is sooooo Good!

P.S. A Green Salad would also go well with this meal. :)
