Low Carb Chili Recipe


Low Carb Chili Recipe
My husband likes a hearty chili with some cornbread. I have to watch what I use due to my diet. When I told him that it was low carb he freaked, and didnt think it was going to taste the same. He ate it and said He didn't notice a differance.

I add cooked soy beans to my lowcarb chili.


How do I know what the carbs are?


I also wonder how you tell the amount of carbs or calories in a recipe.


You can use beef broth instead of water. My basic lo carb chile is the same as yours but I use beef broth. It has zero carbs and makes the chile much more flavorfull.


I'm guessing from the ingredients listed that the total carbs for the whole pot would be around 60. I guess from there it would just be portion control.

Alterations


changed it up some. eliminated mushrooms, instead of green/bell peppers I used jalapenos, sweet peppers and habaneros; minced that together w/ the onion.
I also added curry, and dry mustard (I approximate on my spices, but ~ 1 tsp each).

Also adding Kidney beans (1.5 cups)
it's still low carb and a LOT of Fiber.

Added the spices and Worcestershire while browning the meat, then added water and tomato paste. and added the beans 1 hour into simmer (the time it takes to quick cook/soak the beans..
