Meatless Chili With Corn Chips Recipe
Recipe Ingredients
1 cup dried kidney beans
8 oz soy tempeh, crumbled
1/2 cup red wine
1/2 cup low-sodium soy sauce, shoyu, or tam, ari
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp dried basil
1 tsp chili powder divided
1 cup coarse chopped onions
1/4 cup dry sherry
2 tbsp olive oil
2 cup sliced mushrooms
8 chop tomatoes
1 cup minced green peppers
1 cup minced celery
1 cup minced carrots
1/2 cup minced mild chili peppers (usually, anahie, could use
2 tbsp minced jalapenos
4 cloves garlic
4 cup vegetable stock
3 tbsp tomato paste crushed corn chips for, garnish
Recipe Preparation
Soak beans in cold water to cover 8 hours or overnight. drain.
Combine crumbled tempeh, wine, soy, cumin, basil, chili; let marinate
for 2 hours at least.
Meanwhile, in a 6 qt. pan over medium high heat, saute onions in
sherry and oil 10 minutes, stirring. Add mushroom and cook 10 more
minutes.
Add tomatoes, green pepper, carrot, celery, chili, jalapenos, garlic.
Saute stirring 5 minutes.
Add beans, stock, tomato paste. Bring to boil, cover, lower heat,
simmer 2 to 3 hours till beans are tender.
Add tempeh and marinade. cook 10 minutes. Serve garnished with chips.
NOTES: This is a midwestern chili (beans and tomatoes!). I added some
leftover crushed tomatoes, and we garnished it with non-fat sour
cream and chopped cilantro (better for you than corn chips). A more
traditional chili style would be to relplace all tomatos with a red
chili sauce: split and de-seed dry red anchos, anahiems, and/or
gujanailos (sp?) and sear on a hot cast iron skillet. put in a bowl
and cover by boiling water. let soak 20 min, then puree, maybe with a
little garlic (and usually salt, but not for this recipe!). Use that
instead of tomato paste and crushed tomato.
Enjoy, Keith

Food Tips of the Week
Dieting made easyOne useful tip is to drink plenty of water. From time to time at some stage in a hectic morning, you guess that you want a snack but in fact you might just need a refreshing glass of water or orange squash. The feelings of needing food and needing a drink are quite similar, but one of the two can lead to a broken diet and the other is ok.
The problems associated with reduced carbohydrate diets
Its all the rage, but it is truly safe and healthy for you?
Eliminating carbs could mean missing out on essential nutrients from 'good' carbohydrate foods which must be part of any well-balanced diet, in particular those that we get from vegetables, fruits and grains.
Increased consumption of animal-based products could lead into increased consumption of saturated fat and cholesterol, which most authorities believe will increase the risk of coronary problems.
Foods containing allyl sulfides
( includes pickled shallots, white onions and green onion)
The onion and garlic family of foods is rich in allyl sulphides, a chemical which experts believe could be linked to a reduced risk of stomach and colon cancer.
Even though there is not much scientific evidence published, allyl sulphides are also thought by many experts to aid in colds, arteriosclerosis and diabetes.
Foods containing allyl sulfides are also good for weight loss, so should be included in every diet.
