Just wanted to let you know, I came across this recipe a while back, and I cook this almost every week now! My husband and I love it. It is so simple and yummy, and makes plenty!

It’s been awhile but it maybe because I calculated the NI based on the full cans of beans vs draining them and then weighing. I learned that even though the can may say 500 or so grams when you drain the liquid you normally only get about 250g of actual beans.

In my experience that’s why bean recipes used to be so many calories. At least my bean recipes.

Hi, there!
I was just wondering why this one has more points per same size serving as the quickest 3 bean chili recipe you have? Is it the newer weight watchers points, is that why?
Thank you,
Brenda

I am making this tonight, Chili looks great. I am adding in hot sauce only because we like hot spicy. On a nite that you don’t have a lot of time this is a great recipe. Love the low calories as well. Yahoo sounds great.

Honestly, No I’m not. I generally buy the generic as to save money but the BPA thing has recently been on my radar.

Are you using Eden Cans without the chemiccal BPA in the lining? I’ve really tried to cut down on canned goods by buying Eden in a rush, or soaking beans overnight and boiling before use. Can’t wait to try the recipe!!

I think so.. you can also just cook it in a regular pot on the stove. The beans are all cooked since they are coming from the can, you are just adding flavor! :)

Roni-
I work all day and don’t get home until about an hour (maybe two if I push dinner back a bit) before dinner. Do you think it would cook in 2 hours on high?

I can’t wait to try it!

Thank Roni! I kinda realized that after I looked at the oz. content of normal sized cans. Silly me. This looks delish!

Sorry Annie… I tend to forget to add the size when I use the 15oz ones. They are like a “default” to me. :)

If I don’t specify it’s a 15oz’er.

Sorry about that!

How big are the cans? Do you mean the 8 oz cans or the 15 oz cans? The recipe only calls for “cans” and they come in different sizes. The tomato paste is the only can with the size added. Thanks

Amy – Every time I post points for a bean recipe I’m off from WW. I call it the “bean effect.” :) Trust WW they know better then me! lol

Just wanted to say we had this tonight and it was soooo good! A new favorite for sure – and so easy! I am so excited that it’s 6:30 and I am done eating dinner and the dishes are done. Perfect!
To Amy I ran this through WW Recipe Builder just so I could have it in my tracker and it came up as 4 too!

Roni-
I’m making this tonight for dinner. The only difference in mine, is that I’m using white shoepeg corn instead of “regular” corn. The can is slightly smaller (11 oz). I’m only getting a points value of 4 (8 servings in the recipe). Does your value include the cheese? Just curious, I want to get the most for my points since I’m fairly new at this. I can’t wait to sit down to a big bowl of chili after shoveling the ice off of my driveway. I love the winters in MD :-)

Made it and Love it! I’m a fan of meaty chili and I didn’t even miss it in this one! Does Oprah know about you?! She could make you a star … since the Food Network is blind to your fabulousness!

Roni – I made this on Sunday and I’ve been enjoying it ever since! I popped a few servings in the freezer for later. I put a tiny bit of sour cream and fresh green onions on top.

This is REALLY good!!

I’m so looking forward to trying this! Thanks so much Roni – as a vegetarian I especially appreciate this one : ) It’s going to be perfect for nights when I have school and can still have dinner without resorting to the drive thru!

OK. I tried this, and loved it. Good thing, too … I still have some leftovers.

Thanks for another delicious recipe.

Mine is quite large. This filled it about 1/2 and it was fine.

You could double but I don’t see a need just because your pot is big. Now… if it was too small you’d have a problem. ;~P

This maybe an odd question but what size crock pot do you use? I think mine is quite big and I might have to double the ingredients.

Thanks!
