My dear friend, fellow dietitian and nutrition nerd, Becky Short, gave me this recipe years ago.
12 oz bag of frozen vegan crumbles (I like Quorn or Morningstar Farms)
2 small cans of green chilis
15 oz can of kidney beans, drained & rinsed
15 oz can of pinto beans, drained & rinsed
15 oz can of white or yellow hominy
15 oz can of lima beans or butter beans (or 1 1/2 cups frozen)
45 oz of low sodium diced tomatoes
1 package dry ranch dressing mix
1 package low sodium taco seasoning
1 T. minced garlic
2 cups water
add more beans instead of veggie crumbles
crumbled whole grain tortilla or chips, fat free cheddar cheese, fat free sour cream or lime juice
corn for hominy; canned tomatoes with chilis (like Ro-Tel) for the individual cans of tomatoes and green chilis
whatever beans for the kidney & pinto beans
hot sauce for a spicier kick
by using organic beans or soaking & cooking dried beans , draining and rinsing canned vegetables, using low sodium tomatoes and taco seasoning
