Easy vegetarian chili recipe

[Anonymous]

Does anyone have an easy vegetarian chili recipe they can share?

There's a lot of variety.

Do you have specific ingredients? You can do stuff like bean chili, sweet potato chili, butternut squash chili, etc.

I do have a small number of sweet potatoes right now. Also onions and green peppers. Plenty of beans. Some fresh and some canned tomatoes. Tomato paste. No butternut squash. Probably a pretty basic chili because I suspect I have all those ingredients.

Do you have either broth or some bullion?

Okay, this one does call for pepper and onion:

I've made it before, I'd recommend some cornbread with it.

I just do a version of Jacque Pepin’s refrigerator soup.

You start with the basic onion, celery, and carrots- I tend to add a few cloves of garlic. Chip the, up and saute in olive oil. When they are nice and soft I add about two cups of broth and simmer for a while and then I use my immersion blender to thicken things up and a can of tomato sauce - just tomatoes. Let that simmer for a bit. I add a can of white beans with liquid and a can of black beans with liquid. Then I go into my fridge and pull out what3ver veggies I have. If I planned I will put in a cup of frozen corn and a cup of frozen peas, sliced carrot medallions, chopped up potato- maybe some broccoli.

You won a chili cook-off with a recipe that doesn’t have chili powder?

This doesn’t seem like chili but it looks good, too!

Sub quinoa for the ground beef but keep everything else the same, I sometimes add roasted sweet potatoes. All of my meat-eating friend love it.

Yes, it isn't even a recipe really.

Saute some chopped onion and green pepper until soft, add several cloves of minced garlic and saute until fragrant. Add 1 TB chili powder, 1TB cumin, tsp oregano, salt and pepper, and cayenne if you want a kick. Saute to bloom the spices, 30 secs or so. Add a can diced tomatoes (fire roasted are good if you have them), a can of crushed tomatoes, a can or two of of rinsed beans (whatever you want, I usually do red kidney for chili, but black or pinto or "chili beans" work as well). Add about a cup of water. Simmer for a while. Using better than bouillon with the water can be good if you have it. And none of this is set in stone, work with what you have.

I top with grated cheese, minced onion, and sour cream.
