Quick Facts

Servings: 6
Call it cornmeal or polenta—it makes a great combo with beans and a small amount of meat.

Ingredients

  • 3/4 lb extra lean ground beef
  • 1/2 cup chopped onion
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 2/3 cups canned kidney beans (one 15-ounce can), drained and rinsed
  • 2 cups tomato sauce (one 15-ounce can)
  • 1/4 cup black olives, sliced
  • 1 Tbs chili powder or more, to taste
  • 1/2 tsp Tabasco sauce
  • 1 cup cornmeal
  • 2 1/2 cups water
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup reduced fat Cheddar cheese*, grated

Directions

  • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • Brown beef in a nonstick skillet. Add onions and garlic and cook, uncovered, for 5 minutes. Add beans, tomato sauce, black olives, chili powder, and Tabasco sauce, and stir to combine. Transfer bean mixture to a 10x 10-inch (25x25cm) casserole dish that has been sprayed with vegetable oil cooking spray.
  • Combine cornmeal, water, and salt in a medium saucepan. Bring mixture to a boil, stirring constantly. Continue cooking and stirring until mixture is thick (about 10 minutes).
  • Ladle cornmeal over meat and bean mixture and flatten with a spoon.
  • Bake, uncovered, for 45 minutes.
  • Remove from oven and sprinkle grated cheese over the top.
  • Return to oven and cook for another 10 minutes, until the cheese melts.
