Chilli Con Carne

My husband and I often eat different meals...there's only the two of us at home now and its part of the way in which he supports my weight control regime....so when I can do a meal that we can both eat its a real bonus for me....Chilli Con Carne is one of those meals and its a throwback to when we had the kids at home...we could chuck a pan of this together and put a big plate of bread on the table and everyone was happy....its still a favourite of our eldest son who requests it everytime he comes to stay!!!. I've tried making it from scratch....I like it but hubby likes the traditional way we've always had it....so thats what I do.
I managed to get 6 portions out of this lot at 5sp per portion but obviously if you do bigger portions remember to recalculate. I only calculate 3 sp for my portion because I take the beans out of mine....not because I don't like them but its just something I've done since I joined WW.

Ingredients

Spray Oil
500g 5% fat mince
1 large Onion, sliced
Tin chopped tomatoes
Tin Red Kidney Beans
Packet of Swartz Chilli Con Carne Mix (41g sachet)
Salt and pepper to taste

Method

Preheat the oven to 180 deg/160 deg fan/ gas mark 4
Spray a large lidded oven proof casserole dish with the spray oil and bring to a medium/ high temperature. Add the mince and allow it to brown in the pan for a few minutes. Add the onions and stir to combine. Chuck in the tomatoes and fill the can with water and add that too. Add the Red Kidney beans and stir in the Chilli mix. Cover and place in the oven for 35-40 minutes until ready to eat.
