BLACK BEAN CHICKEN CHILI
I created this in late August when my vegetable garden was in it's prime, with fresh tomato sauce and zucchini and corn... I'm not really too big on ground beef, so I made this chili with chicken, and it is hands down my favourite chili. My whole family, including the picky ones, loved it. I left out any hot ingredients like cayenne or hot sauce, because that is entirely up to you folks. Tastes great with a nice piece of cornbread alongside too!

- On stovetop, in a large pot, saute onions, zucchini, corn and garlic in a bit of oil on med-low heat for about 10 minutes.
- Add black beans and spices(salt, pepper and sugar included), and saute another two minutes.
- Add tomato sauce and let simmer, covered, for about 15-20 minutes.
- Stir in chicken and let simer, covered for another 5 minutes.
