Texmex Chili Hcg Phase 2 Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oil or broth in large, deep skillet. Fry ground beef and onions until cooked through.
• In the meantime, blend tomatoes and garlic in food processor or blender until liquefied. Pour into skillet, over fried ground beef and onions.
• Mix in the rest of the ingredients and bring to a boil.
• Reduce heat, cover and simmer at least 30 minutes. Add water to prevent burning and to thin out the sauce. The longer it simmers, the more flavorful it gets.
• *NOTE: I follow the HCG protocol that allows limited use (up to 1TB) of extra virgin olive oil or extra virgin coconut oil per day. If this is not your case, replace oil with homemade beef bone broth.

Steps:

• ** These are just suggestions, so please add more or less depending on your taste. I like my chili spicy so I tend to add more chili powder, cayenne and black pepper.
• Saute garlic over med. heat using a little liquid so your garlic won't burn. Add beef and let brown, be sure to keep moving it around so it doesn't burn since this is EXTRA Lean beef and there is practically no fat. Add more liquid if you need to about a Tablespoon at a time.
• While meat is browning dice up tomato and puree in blender, add a little broth or water to help it move around a little in the blender if needed.
• Once meat is brown add the tomato puree and 1/2 cup of the liquid. Begin adding spices, try a little at a time if you are unsure and then add by taste. Let the chili simmer on med/low heat for about 15 min or until it reaches the consistency you like. I like mine a little thicker so I let it cook about 15 minute.
