Two tablespoons chili powder sounded like an excess of heat to me, so I used 2 teaspoons of Mexicale pure chile powder (which is very hot), and it was fine. If you use a hi-bred chili powder, that is not as hot, go with the 2 Tablespoons the recipe called for.

2 celery ribs -- thinly sliced
2 cans back beans -- (15-oz) drained and rinsed
1 can reduced-sodium diced tomatoes -- (28-oz)
1 cup reduced-sodium vegetable broth
2 Tbsp ground cumin
2 Tbsp dried oregano
2 Tbsp chili powder
2 tsp ground cinnamon

Serves 8; Serving size: 1 1/2 cups
This vegetarian chili will let you enjoy your holiday guests without
spending too much time in the kitchen: Toss everything into the slow
cooker and let it go until it's utterly irresistible. Better still, make
it a day ahead and so the flavors can fully develop in the fridge
overnight.
Serve with minced red onion, cilantro leaves, or even a little low-fat
sour cream on the side to garnish the bowls. Want to add even more flavor?
Crumble in 1/2 pound turkey sausage, casings removed, along with the other
ingredients. (That'll increase the PointsPlusT values to 5 per serving.)
