This little number is easy on both the wallet and your waistline; it is also surprisingly filling.  I served it on onion rolls, but hamburger buns will do.

  • ~  1 TBSP olive oil
  • 1 small onion – chopped
  • 1  medium bell pepper – chopped
  • 2 ribs celery – chopped
  • 2 carrots peeled and grated
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • 1 can (14.5 oz) diced tomatoes
  • 1 can kidney beans drained and rinsed
  • 1 TBSP tomato paste
  • 1 TBSP cider vinegar (red wine or white will do, too)
  • 1 1/2 TBSP chili powder
  • optional  1 tsp corn starch to thicken
  • ground pepper and salt to taste

Heat the olive oil over medium heat in a large skillet, add the onion, celery, bell pepper, carrot, and garlic.  Cook, stirring freqently until tender.  Add the tomatoes, tomato paste, cider vinegar, kidney beans, and chili powder.  Bring to a simmer, if desired sprinkle in the corn starch, stirring thoroughly.  Simmer for five minutes and serve.
