Health and fertility benefits of White Bean Chili with Corn Chip Crunch Recipe | Myrecipes
Cinnamon is one of the best ingredients that someone with insulin sensitivity can eat. Half a teaspoon of cinnamon per day has been shown to be very effective at normalizing blood sugar levels. Cinnamon contains hydroxychalcone, which is thought to enhance the effects of insulin. It has also been suggested that Cinnamon prevents post-meal blood sugar spikes by slowing the gastric emptying rate - meaning that food digests slowly. (Reference: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11506060).
Ingredients
3 cups chopped onion, divided
3 cups chopped red bell pepper, divided
1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro stems
1 1/2 tablespoons dried oregano
6 garlic cloves
3 dried ancho chile peppers, stemmed, seeded, and finely chopped
1/4 cup olive oil
1 tablespoon ground cumin
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 3/4 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 bay leaf
4 1/2 cups organic vegetable broth
1 (16-ounce) package dried white beans
1 (26.46-ounce) container unsalted tomato puree
1 (12-ounce) bottle stout beer (such as Guinness)
4 cups chopped zucchini (about 2 large)
1 (15-ounce) can unsalted fire-roasted diced tomatoes, undrained
3/4 cup reduced-fat sour cream
3 ounces corn chips, crushed (such as Fritos)
Instructions
