Equipment

  • 1 Pressure cooker

Ingredients

  • 30 oz kidney beans 2 cans, drained and rinsed
  • 30 oz black beans 2 cans, drained and rinsed
  • 30 oz pinto beans 2 cans, drained and rinsed
  • 30 oz Rotel Original Diced Tomatoes & Green Chilies 3 cans
  • 15 oz tomato sauce 1 can
  • 3 zucchini(s) small
  • 3 carrot(s) peeled and sliced
  • 1 red or orange bell pepper de-seeded and diced
  • 2 celery stalks chopped
  • 15 oz whole kernel corn one can
  • 1/2 T cumin
  • 1/2 T oregano
  • 1 T chili powder
  • 2-3 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1 onion (diced)
  • Non-fat Greek yogurt optional

Instructions

If you are using a pressure cooker or Instant Pot:

  • Cut up all of the vegetables, drain and rinse the beans, and open the Rotel and tomato sauce cans.
  • Place everything into the pressure cooker or Instant Pot along with the spices and stir with a spoon.
  • Select the Beans/Chili button or Meat/Stew button. Start your machine. Make sure the pressure valve is closed. It will cook for 20 - 35 minutes depending on the machine you use (mine is 20!). 
  • Release the pressure from your cooker and serve.

If you are using a slow cooker:

  • Cut up the onion, zucchini, carrots, celery, and bell pepper.
  • Spray a cooking pan with fat free cooking spray, and heat up over medium high heat.
  • Sauté the veggies for about 5 – 7 minutes or until slightly tender.
  • Add the veggies from step 3 to the slow cooker along with the corn, canned items (including beans), and spices. Stir to combine.
  • Cook your chili on high for 3 1/2 – 4 hours.
  • Serve hot, adding any garnishments you like (they may count for points!).

Notes

Yield: about 1 1/3 cups per serving. Greek yogurt is not counted in the nutritional information as it is optional.
