So here is another version of the Chuck Wagon dinner, this one comes from the “Taste of Home Comfort Food Diet Cookbook”, doesn’t taste like diet food at all though.

1/3 pound lean ground beef (I used a full pound)

1 small onion, chopped

1/4 cup chopped green pepper (left this out)

1 garlic clove, pressed (I used 2)

1 (7 oz) can whole kernel corn, drained (I used a whole 15 oz can)

3/4 cup kidney beans, drained and rinsed (I used a whole 15 oz can)

1/2 cup tomato sauce (I used a whole 8 oz can)

1 tablespoon chili powder

1/8 teaspoon pepper

In a large saucepan, cook beef, onion, pepper and garlic over medium heat until meat is no longer pink then drain.  Add corn, beans, tomato sauce and seasonings; cover and cook 5 – 10 minutes longer or until heated through.

The recipe if prepared in original form (without my changes) is considered 2 servings and each serving is 300 calories.
