Ingredients
- 6 cups prepared mashed potatoes $2.17
- 2 cups frozen corn kernels* $1.49
- 1 15oz. can can black beans $0.79
- 1/2 tsp chili powder** $0.10
- 4 oz. cheddar, shredded $1.00
- 1/2 cup BBQ sauce $0.68
- 2 green onions, sliced $0.22
- 1 jalapeño, thinly sliced (optional) $0.33
Instructions
- Allow the corn kernels to thaw, or heat them through if you plan to eat the bowls immediately. Rinse and drain the black beans, then add them to a bowl along with the chili powder and stir until the beans are coated.
- To build the bowls, place about 1.5 cups mashed potatoes in each bowl, then top with about 1/2 cup corn kernels, 1/3 cup black beans, about 1/4 cup shredded cheddar, 2 Tbsp BBQ sauce, and a sprinkle of sliced green onions and jalapeño.
- Serve the bowls immediately, or refrigerate until ready to eat. To reheat, simply microwave until the mashed potatoes are hot and the cheese is melted.

Notes
- *I used "fire roasted" frozen corn kernels from Trader Joes, which are more expensive but lend a wonderfully smoky flavor.
- **This is not spicy red chile powder, but a mild, earthy blend of spices used to season American chili.
