 Directions

PANTRY - Rotelle or pasta twists made with grains other than wheat are
available at whole food stores. We used a Red Chile and Garlic Polenta
Pasta (made by Gabrielle, California).

1. Heat a large soup pan. Add oil and onions and saute until onions are
soft, about 3 minutes. Add the corn kernels and cook, stirring, until
toasted (2 minutes). Add the tomatoes, water, chopped bell pepper, black
beans, cocoa powder, black pepper and garlic salt. Stir to combine.

2. Bring to a boil. Add the polenta pasta. Return to the boil. Reduce heat
and cook al dente (7 to 9 minutes). Do not overcook the pasta. Add cilantro
and adjust seasonings. Serve at once.

Makes almost 7 cups to serve 3: each 248 cals and 9%cff (2.5g fat)
