Wave 1 Pork and Black Bean Chili

  • I have not tried this recipe yet, but found it in the Feb issue of Looking Good Now magazine and thought I would share it. Seems it would be good for Wave 1,2 and 3. This is my first recipe post. If I error let me know as I have other recipes I would like to share. Thanks and enjoy!!


    1 lb. pork tenderloin cut into 1-inch cubes
    1 (16 oz) jar chunky style salsa
    3 (15 oz) cans black beans, rinsed and drained
    1/2 cup nonfat chicken broth
    1 tbsp onion powder (not sure if this is sonoma friendly)
    2 1/2 tsps. chili powder
    1 tsp oregano
    * It calls for 1/4 cup non fat sour cream as optional and this is not sonoma friendly on any wave level.

    Spray the inside of a slow cooker with cooking spray. Combine all ingredients, except sour cream in slow cooker and mix well. Cover and cook on low heat for 8-9 hours. Serve with the sour cream if desired.
