The ingredients for Sarah's Fall Chili are:

1 pound extra lean gound beef
1 package taco seasoning
3 cloves garlic
2 tsp ground black pepper
1 tbsp dried parsley
2 tsp hot pepper sauce
2 cans stewed tomatoes
2 cans kidney beans
.25 cup finely chopped carrots
.25 cup finely chopped celery
.5 cup diced green chilis
1 cup pearled barley
water

Serving Size: 1 cup

Here is how you make Sarah's Fall Chili:

Brown the ground beef in a stock pot. Drain all fat and rinse with water. Add Taco Seasoning, Garlic, Pepper, Parsley, Hot Sauce, Stewed Tomatoes, and stir. Add 2 cans of Kidney Beans. Fill cans with water and add to pot. Stir occasionally until heated throughout. As this is heating, dice carrots and celery finely. Add to pot once it is simmering with Green Chilis. Add 1 cup uncooked barley and stir. This should simmer for at least 6 hours over medium low heat. Stir occasionally to keep beans from sticking to bottom of the pot. Add water as desired. Tastes best when made several days in advance. I usually make a double batch to serve to family on Halloween with cornbread muffins. Add a little low fat shredded cheddar if you like. Note this is not included in the calories as is. May substitute ground turkey and add more finely chopped vegetables if desired. May reduce sodium by choosing a low-salt taco seasoning & low salt hot sauce. Number of Servings: 10Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user SBNEMITZ.
