Beef and Beer Chili


A cup and a half of this beef and beer chili is 261 calories and a good source of fiber.

Ingredients:
            1 1/2 cups chopped red onion (about 1 medium)
            1 cup chopped red bell pepper (about 1 small)
            8 ounces extralean ground beef
            2 garlic cloves, minced
            1 1/2 tablespoons chili powder
            2 teaspoons ground cumin
            1 teaspoon sugar
            1/2 teaspoon salt
            1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
            1 (19-ounce) can red kidney beans, drained
            1 (14.5-ounce) can no-salt-added diced tomatoes, undrained
            1 (14-ounce) can low-sodium beef broth
            1 (12-ounce) bottle beer (such as Budweiser)
            1 tablespoon yellow cornmeal
            1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
Preparation:
Combine first 4 ingredients in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Cook 5 minutes or until beef is browned, stirring to crumble. Stir in chili powder, cumin, sugar, and salt; cook 1 minute. Add oregano and next 4 ingredients (through beer) to pan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer 15 minutes. Stir in cornmeal; cook 5 minutes. Stir in juice.
