Tonight I ended up making a single serving size of chili. I wasn't sure exactly how it would come out, but it wasn't bad at all! I'm a single person, so it's tough to find recipes for just one to make. I'm sure you could multiply the ingredients to size it up if needed.
4 oz lean ground beef (I used 96/4 Meijer brand angus beef that I found on sale a week or two ago)
1/4 cup Ragu Old World Style Sweet Tomato Basil Pasta sauce
2 ounces left over chicken Soup sans chicken (chicken broth, diced onions, diced tomatoes, diced bell peppers - green, red, yellow and orange that was part of my crockpot chicken soup that I made a couple of days ago - but I didn't cut up the chicken, so it was without chicken)
1/4 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp pepper
1/4 tsp Mrs. Dash salt-free fiesta lime spice
1/4 cup shredded low-fat cheddar cheese
Brown the ground beef, add in the pasta sauce and chicken broth with veggies. Let it simmer for a while and then add the spices. Continue simmering until liquid is reduced to about 1/2 of original. Serve in a bowl and top with the cheddar cheese.
I'm sure you could substitute any meat for the ground beef. But I wouldn't use anything that would have more fat.
