I'm not really sure what makes a chowder a chowder, but this is thicker than soup and not as thick as stew.... so I'm calling it a chowder. Throw it all together and 8 hours later, it's done! Ingredients:
1 medium onion, diced |
1 (15 ounce) can black beans, do not rinse, drain |
1 (15 ounce) can diced tomatoes |
1 cup frozen corn |
1 (14 ounce) can fat-free refried beans (the hot ones if you like spicy) |
1 cup fat free chicken broth (or vegetable broth for vegetarian's) |
3 tablespoons taco seasoning |
1/2-1 teaspoon cayenne pepper |
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped (optional) |
6 tablespoons nonfat sour cream (optional) |
Directions:
1. Combine everything EXCEPT cilantro and sour cream in crock-pot.
2. Cook on low for 8-9 hours. I like to turn crock-pot to high the last 20-30 minutes to allow soup to thicken.
3. If using, top with 1 tablespoon of sour cream and sprinkle with cilantro.
