Four Bean Chili

Nutritious. Warming. Low in calories, salt, carbs, fat and sugar. High in fiber. Colorful. Vegan (minus the grated cheese). Mild. Easy!
 
4 oz. red beans
4 oz. black turtle beans
4 oz. great northern white beans
4 oz. pinto beans
32 oz. chopped tomatoes (we combine cherry tomatoes and roasted tomatoes)
10 oz. diced sweet red and green peppers (hot peppers optional)
5 oz. chopped onions
3 cloves garlic
1 TBS dried basil leaves
1 TBS chili powder
1 TBS ground cumin
1 TBS Mrs. Dash Fiesta Lime
2 C hot water

For best results, soak dried beans overnight. If using canned beans, rinse thoroughly.

Mix all ingredients into a four-quart slow cooker. Low heat for approximately 8 hours.

Optional: top serving with grated cheese. To increase the spicy heat, add a chopped jalapeno pepper.

Serves 8.
