I like warm meals more than cold ones, and this is the lightest I make very regularly beside plain old seared vegetables. Maybe it's something for some of you:
1kg minced meat /
3 bell peppers /
1 onion /
2 cans minced tomatoes /
2 tablespoons of tomato paste /
1 can kidney beans /
1 can corn /
1 tablespoon minced garlic /
1 tablespoon oliveoil /
400ml vegetable broth /
chili powder, chili flakes, marjoram, salt, pepper to taste (and a bit of agave syrup / your sweetener of choice to taste) /
2 teaspoons of cornstarch if it's too watery
sear the meat in a big pot for a few minutes, cut up bell pepper, onion and garlic (or take pre-cut frozen ones) and throw them in, throw everything else in, cook on medium-low with the lid on for 20-30 mins, spice up, done. stir up the cornstarch with a bit of cold water and put in if it's too watery for you.
a full pot of that gives about 6-8 big portions, each about 500-600g. According to my calorie counting app, this plate here with 623g is 636 cal (23,7g carbs / 47g protein / 37g fat). We usually eat two to three days from this with two people. and you can make it as spicy or non-spicy as you want! this one was made by my partner, so it's not as spicy as I make it lol, but very, very good!
