Just about everyone loves fries and chili, and this vegetarian version lends a comfort note to any gathering. The chili makes more than you'll need, but you can never have too much. Serve the fries with small forks.
This tasty recipe is a quick fix when tacos just won't do. There is no rolling involved and each slice has a generous helping of thick enchilada sauce. Substitute ground turkey or chicken for the beef if you wish. Serve with a dollop of sour cream and sliced green onion.

The tomato paste used in this recipe is a concentrated source of lycopene, with 28 mg per 1/4 cup (50 mL) compared with 3 mg in 1 raw tomato. It is also noteworthy that research indicates lycopene from cooked or processed tomatoes is more readily absorbed by the body, especially if cooked with olive oil.
