taco corn chili

This sounds like a weird recipe, but the SUPER SWEET CORN is a nice surprise, really.

low fat, low cholesterol, low calorie
recipe from Betty Crocker

1 lb. lean ground beef
1 - 15 oz. can reduced-sodium kidney beans, drained & rinsed
1/2 envelope taco seasoning mix
1 -1 10 oz. can diced tomatoes, undrained**
8-10 oz. frozen SUPER SWEET corn, thawed & drained (put it in a strainer and run cold water over it for a few minutes while you're browning the meat)
2 c. water
2 t. sugar

1. Brown beef in a 3-4 qt. soup pot (or whatever you have that's close to fitting this description). Drain off the fat.

2. Stir in remaining ingredients. Heat to boiling; reduce heat to low. Simmer uncovered for 18 minutes, stirring occasionally.

3. Serve with shredded cheese, tortilla chips, and sour cream for a delicious, healthy spoon taco!

**Need a little more heat? Substitute a 10 oz. can of diced tomatoes and green chiles, and use an entire package of taco seasoning. Keep the milk handy...?
