This is a meatless chilli, which originates
from Orlando, Florida. Instead of using
a meat substitute, peaches are used to make
a sweet and delicious meal. Peaches contain
vitamin
C, boron
(trace mineral – helps in calcium
metabolism, building strong bones), selenium,
potassium,
and beta-carotene.
Tomatoes which are rich in lycopene (an
antioxidant with cancer prevention properties)
are also used for this dish.
