Get Healthy!



 From time to time, I will be posting new healthy ideas to help inspire you! Growing up in Canada I am all too familiar with “Cabin Fever”. As soon as the snow falls you become unmotivated to get out to find peace and happiness. Lets face it, the cold weather is no fun! On top of that, holiday season means multiple dinners, delicious seasonal foods and of course the more food you eat the more pounds you feel you have packed on! But it doesn’t have to be that way!
     My first step in motivating you readers to getting healthy is by checking out my chili recipe! However I am a vegetarian so my meals will consist of meatless options. If you feel the lack of meat doesn't suit your needs feel free to throw in some extra lean ground beef or perhaps some Italian sausage into the mix to spice things up!
1 Can of Pinto Beans
1 Can of Kidney Beans
1 Can of chopped tomatoes  
1 Cup of Vegetable stock
1 Zucchini 
1 chopped onion
1 Red pepper
Chopped mushrooms 
2 garlic cloves
3 tbsp chili powder 
1 tbsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp of your favorite hot sauce ( you don't need to I personally enjoy Siratcha)

Make sure to put the whole can of tomatoes in, the tomato water will make it less dry. If you are still finding your chili a bit dry add 1/4 cup of water. 

place in slow cooker for about 6 hours. 

 Sprinkle with cheese when done andVoila!
