This healthy and easy chili recipe is perfect for lunch, especially for those of us who want something quick but not loaded with fat and calories. I doctor up canned vegetarian chili with diced onions and fresh baby spinach and give it all a healthy squirt of lime juice to brighten up the flavor. It’s a fabulous meal that fuels your body in a guilt-free way. I love using Nalley’s Original Vegetarian Chili with Beans, out of all the vegetarian chilies this one is the lowest in fat that I've found. A one-cup serving has only 1.5 grams of fat (zero saturated or trans fats!), compared to 9 grams that many other brands have, and is loaded with protein (15 grams).
