P2 Chili Madness

Okay, I admit it...I LOVE P2 chili.  I eat it most days and not just because it tastes so yummy, but because it's so freakin' easy to make!!  When I am forward thinking enough I will make it multiple batches and freeze them, which just adds to the convenience factor. 

Ingredients:
100 grams lean ground beef (I used at least 7%)
1/2 can diced petite tomatoes (counts as one vegetable serving on P2)
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp dark chocolate cocoa powder
3/4 tsp chili powder
dash of cayenne powder (optional and amount depending on how spicy you like it)

Directions:
Brown meat and drain well.  Combine all the ingredients in a saucepan and let simmer on low for 5-10 minutes (depends on what consistency you like).

Tip:  I recently added a cup of beef broth and it made more of a hearty soup and I loved it!!!  It's a little less "POP", but was super yummy.
