Clean Eating Mexican Black Bean Chili Recipe

By

This clean eating Mexican black bean chili recipe is the perfect chili for summer!

I love a versatile dish, and this one certainly fits that description. It’s super easy to make in a pot, slow cooker or Instant Pot and will freeze well if you can’t eat it all right away. Enjoy it warm or cool.

Plus, this recipe is easy on the wallet! It cost me $3 for the veggies and about $.39 for the beans. The broth and other jarred ingredients came about about $6. So this entire pot of chili costs less than $10 to make and it will give you quite a few meals!

CLEAN EATING MEXICAN BLACK BEAN CHILI RECIPE:

Clean Eating Mexican Black Bean Chili

A deliciously versatile chili you can enjoy warm or cool, over pasta, rice, with or without meat, and more! The possibilities are endless!

  • 1 cup dry black beans ((rinsed))
  • 4 cups vegetable broth
  • 28 oz. can diced tomatoes
  • 1 cup chopped red onion
  • 2 cups chopped red bell pepper
  • 1 1/2 cups salsa ((whatever your favorite clean salsa is))
  • 2 tbsp. garlic powder
  • 1 tbsp. onion powder
  • 1 tbsp. ground cumin
  • 1 tbsp. ground coriander
  • 1 tbsp. paprika ((chili powder could work too if you don't have paprika))

  1. INSTANT POT INSTRUCTIONS:

  2. Combine all the ingredient in the IP insert and stir to combine. Put the lid in place and close the vent. Use the manual setting and set to 35 minutes. Use a natural release for at least 20 minutes. Vent any remaining steam completely, then open the lid.

  3. STOVE TOP INSTRUCTIONS:

  4. Combine all ingredients in a large stock pot with a lid and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a steady simmer with the lid on. Keeping the lid on the pot, cook until the beans are cooked through. Note that your yield may be slightly less if you cook this on the stove due to the liquid cooking out more. You can add more broth if you like, to make up for that.

  5. SLOW COOKER INSTRUCTIONS:

  6. Combine all ingredients in a slow cooker and stir to combine in the crock.

  7. Set the crock to high for 6-8 hours or low for 8-10 hours.

Please note that the nutrition data below is a ballpark figure. Exact data is not possible.

Post-Workout Coffee Protein Shake

Once again, I’ve partnered with Brother  to show the versatility of the  Brother P-touch Label Maker , especially when it comes to fitness and gym equipment.  As always, thank you for supporting CNC! I receive quite a few questions from readers about what I eat before, during, and after workouts, so I decide to share those with you today. It changes a little bit from workout-to-workout, but I keep a general framework in mind. BEFORE (approximately 30 minutes): I typically eat a small snack made up of mostly simple carbs since they provide quick energy. Some favorites: Half of a banana or another piece of whole fruit, a protein bar, handful of raisins, or a rice cake with jam and sometimes nut butter (it just depends how hungry I am and the timing of my workout). DURING : I typically don’t consume anything during my workouts, unless they’re longer than 90 minutes, like if I’m training for a long distance race (i.e. half marathon). In that case, I’ll take an energy gel and water ev

If we were in a room, almost everyone’s hand would go up, including mine!  With so much of our lives digitized these days, it’s hard not to get overwhelmed with all the information we need to save and reference. And because computers, the internet, and living in email and calendars are relatively new to humans, we as a society are still learning good systems. If I asked you to organize a paper filing cabinet, you’d probably have a few good ideas on how to do that. But if I asked you to organize a computer hard drive, many of us get stumped on the sheer volume of files and the endless ways to sort.  The good news is there are apps that make this process more intuitiv
