BLACK BEAN HOMINY CHILI
Canned white or yellow hominy adds wonderful corn flavor and color. This is even better is it's allowed to sit for a day and get rewarmed. *Serve this chili as "Chili Burritos" by wrapping in tortillas with green onions, shredded sharp cheddar cheese, cilantro, sour cream and salsa for a great 2nd meal!

HEALTHY BLACK BEAN-HOMINY CHILI
I found this recipe, in the newspaper. Sounds worth a try! I would use frozen onions & green peppers, if I them on hand, to make this even more quick & easy.

- 1. Microwave broth and tomatoes, in a microwave-safe container, on high power, until steamy hot, about 5 minutes.

- 3. Add beans and hominy, along with hot broth mixture. bring to a simmer, reduce heat to low, and simmer, partly covered, until vegetables are tender and flavors have blended, about 20 minutes.
- 4. Stir in garlic, chocolate, and cilantro. Simmer a couple of minutes to blend flavors. Turn off heat, and let stand a few minutes, if there is time. Adjust seasonings, and serve.
Tips:
- For the best flavor, use freshly ground cumin and chili powder. You can use a coffee grinder to grind your own spices.
- Soak the hominy overnight before using. This will help to reduce the cooking time and make the hominy more tender.
- If you don't have time to soak the hominy overnight, you can quick-soak it by boiling it for 1 hour, then letting it cool.
- Use a variety of beans for a more flavorful chili. Black beans, pinto beans, and kidney beans all work well.
- Add roasted vegetables to the chili for extra flavor and nutrition. Bell peppers, onions, and corn are all good choices.
- Top the chili with your favorite toppings, such as sour cream, shredded cheese, or chopped cilantro.
