Chunky Bean Stew

I am back and have a DELICIOUS recipe to share with all of you.  Last night, was one of those nights when I had nothing planned for dinner.  A  blizzard was on the horizon and I  literally opened the cupboards and asked for a divine intervention for dinner!  The gang loved it, so I thought I would share.  It is kind of a mix between a Chili and a Stew.

  • 2 large onions, chopped

  • 1 red pepper, chopped

  • 1 (15 ounce can) diced tomatoes with green chili (do not drain)

This recipe is easy, delicious and best of all, LOADED with fiber and lean protein.  Even better than all of that – I bet you have all the ingredients in your kitchen right now.
