You all made me hungry for chili with a previous post, and you were talking about what beans to use. I didn't use beans, but had some cauliflower left over and used that.

In a electric skillet I slowly sauteed with Olive Oil:
 1 clove of garlic
 1/4 cup chopped onion
 1/8 cup chopped celery
 1 cup cauliflower - small pieces washed (RAW) I wanted a more crisp texture to the finished recipe.
 1/2 Teaspoon Kick-en Chicken spice!

I cooked hamburger separately in my Tupperware cooker then added to sauteed mixture and cooked for a couple of minutes.
I then added one 15 oz can of tomato sauce for that is what I had. I think it was 2 carbs for 1/4 cup.


I let the mixture cook covered for awhile until I was too hungry to wait, and then had a bowl on top of romaine lettuce with a slice of Avocado, and a couple of no carb olives! And sprinkled cheese on top of the Chili.....

I have pictures but just couldn't figure out how to add to my post. I love this chili, and each person making recipe can use amounts according to how they like the different flavors.

What's the serving size and carb count? It sounds good.

Yes Beebs! Chili traditionally has no beans.If you are looking for chili con carne (with beans) you can use black soy beans.I buy them at the grocery store(food Lion) in the organic section or the health food store.i can even send you a cornbread recipe for your almond flour.
send me your favorite recipe and i will convert it.

Umpa...my husband loves Wendy's chili so he wants beans in it.  He didn't care for the sound of the low carb version w/o any beans.  To keep it low carb you mentioned black soy beans?  with that added how much of the beans should be added and how will that change the amount of net carbs per serving?  He would rather stay as close to the original recipe as possible. Can you help?

Here is the official Wendy's chili recipe...work your magic.

Wendy's Chili
 

                   1 - pound ground beef

                   1 - 14.5 Oz. can tomato sauce

                   1 - 14.5 Oz. can kidney beans (with liquid)

                   1 - 14.5 Oz. can pinto beans (with liquid)

                   1/2 cup diced onion

                   1/4 cup diced green chilies

                   1/4 cup diced celery

                   2 medium tomatoes, chopped

                   1 teaspoons cumin powder

                   2 tablespoons chili powder

                   1 teaspoon black pepper

                   2 teaspoons salt

                   1 cup water

 

  1. Brown the ground beef in a skillet over medium heat; drain off the fat.

  2. Using a fork, crumble the cooked beef into pea-size pieces.

  3. In a large pot, combine the beef plus all the remaining ingredients, and bring to a simmer over low heat. Cook, stirring every 15 minutes, for 2 to 3 hours.

 
     Makes about 12 servings.

Thanks!

low carb tomato sauce and black soy beans are the only changes I see you need to make

Beebs gets a gold star!
Beebs is right, you have to pick the lowest tomatoe product(which for me is usually marinara) you can find.Black soy beans I buy are one carb per serving.
Please post your results its a great recipe!

[beebs]

Eden Soy Black Soy Beans are only 3.5 carbs for the whole can!!!

[joagain]

I still have not found them anywhere or they with the regular beans in the grocery store ?

Thanks beebs!  I'll look for them.  He just made the traditional way and I had a taste of the soupy part and it was fabulous...now to get him to try it with the low carb tomato and black soy beans. lol

[beebs]

I order mine from amazon.

Izzet when I make mine I put the soybeans in when I put the raw groundbeef in the pan.Then the veggies and rest of ingredients.That way by the time its done the beans are soft like kidney beans.
Don't forget chilidogs with the leftovers!
