Chili is one of the top foods served during Super Bowl™. Chili is not the worst food out there for you, it's basically meat and seasonings, but there is a way to make that hearty bowl of chili a little healthier. For Clark Bartram, a personal trainer, fitness model and former lead adviser to the International Sports Sciences Association, adding white button mushrooms is the key to this easy chili recipe.
Mushrooms are not only low in calories, but high in fiber, selenium, protein and antioxidants. They may also reduce your risk of developing Alzheimer's disease, cancer, diabetes and heart disease. That is only the beginning of the health benefits of mushrooms. So what a wonderful idea to add them to chili!
To make this low-sodium beef chili recipe you will not only need fresh button mushrooms, but ground beef, kidney beans, black beans, onions, chopped canned tomatoes, chili powder, tomato puree and fresh garlic. The easy chili recipe cooks up in about 30 minutes, too! No long simmering for this recipe.
Serve bowls of the chili for lunch or dinner with your favorite chili toppings.
