Tomato Soup?
| Fri, 04-06-2007 - 3:31pm |
I was thinking it would be great to make some chili with extra lean ground beef and kidney beans for dinner, but my recipe calls for tomato soup as the base. Can I eat tomato soup on p1?
Thanks!

Sorry, canned tomato soup is not allowed.
You can easily use canned tomatoes and/or tomato paste (look for brands that have no added sugars).

Hi,
A few things that I throw in my chili when I think it needs jazzing up are a can of chopped green chilies and/or a tablespoon or two of unsweetened cocoa powder.
Cathy,
The Cocoa powder seems like an interestings twist. I wondered for years what my my fathers chili taste the way it did (very yummy) only to discover just w/in the last few year that his secret is coffee of all things.
I always add vinegar or a lot of hot sauce (which has vinegar as the base) or a bit of both to brighten the flavor at the end. To me chili needs it. Plus, I probably 2-3X the amount of chili powder than in normal recipes. 1 or 2T just won't do it for me!
Hope that helps!
Lisa.
