Ingredients

1 medium green pepper, chopped
1 medium sweet yellow pepper, chopped
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and chopped
1 medium onion, chopped
1 tablespoon olive oil
3 garlic cloves, minced
2 cans (14-1/2 ounces each) diced tomatoes with mild green chiles, undrained
1 can (10 ounces) diced tomatoes and green chiles, undrained
1 can (16 ounces) kidney beans, rinsed and drained

In a Dutch oven coated with cooking spray, saute the peppers and onion in oil until tender. Add garlic; cook 1 minute longer. Stir in the tomatoes, kidney beans, black beans, broth, chili powder, cumin and cayenne. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered for 10 minutes.

Stir in refried beans; simmer 10 minutes longer. Garnish each serving with 2 teaspoons each of cheese and green onions.
