8 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
Vegetable cooking spray
½ cup Chopped onion
½ cup Chopped celery
½ cup Diced carrot
½ cup Diced green pepper
1 Garlic clove; minced
14½ ounce Can no-salt added tomatoes undrained and crushed
1½ tablespoon Chili powder
1 tablespoon No-salt-added tomato paste
1 tablespoon Vinegar
1 teaspoon Pepper
15½ ounce Red kidney beans (canned) drained and rinsed
8 Kaiser rolls (2-1/2 oz ea.)

Directions

Coat a large nonstick skillet with cooking spray; place over medium-high heat until hot. Add the onion, celery, carrot, green pepper, and garlic; saute until tender. Stir in the tomatoes and next four ingredients. Cover, reduce the heat, and simmer ten minutes. Add the kidney beans and cook an additional five minutes or until thoroughly heated.

Cut a ¼" slice off the top of each kaiser roll; set it aside.

Hollow out the center of each roll, leaving a ½"-thick shell; reserve the insides of rolls for other uses. Spoon the bean mixture evenly into the rolls; cover with the top slices. Serve immediately.
