Chili Muffins

I got this recipe from a good friend and she found it in the family fun magazine.  I used turkey and 1 egg and 2 whites to help with cholesterol.  Just to let you know this is one of Mark's favorite dishes.  I took this to a friend who was moving and they loved them.

Ingredients

2large eggs
115 ounce can kidney beans, drained and rinsed
1medium red bell pepper, finely diced
1cup fresh or frozen corn kernels
¼cup tomato paste
1teaspoon cumin
1teaspoon garlic powder
1teaspoon onion powder
1teaspoon oregano
½teaspoon chili powder
1teaspoon salt
¼teaspoon pepper
1pound extra-lean ground beef
1cup grated cheddar
½cup low-fat sour cream
Sliced scallions for garnish

Directions

1. Heat the oven to 375 degrees and coat a standard 12-cup muffin tin with cooking spray. In a large bowl, lightly beat the eggs. Stir in all but the last four ingredients, then gently mix in the ground beef.
2. Divide the mixture evenly among the muffin wells. Use your fingers to press down and pack the contents of each well. Cook the cupcakes for 20 minutes, then remove the pan from the oven and sprinkle a heaping tablespoon of cheese onto each cupcake. Return the pan to the oven and bake until a thermometer inserted into the center of a cupcake registers 160 degrees , about 10 minutes more. Cool the cupcakes for 5 minutes before unmolding them. Serve with sour cream and scallions
