This is a super low calorie chilli that can be used for lunches or dinners, on it’s own or paired with rice, wraps, small jacket potatoes or even on top of some tortilla chips, depending on how many calories you have spare.
Ideal for batch cooking and keeping in the freezer for a quick meal, it will stop you picking up the phone and ringing for take out when you are in a rush.
