Bowl Of Compassion Vegetarian Chili Recipe
Recipe Ingredients
1/3 cup olive oil
2 medium onions, chopped
4 cloves garlic, minced
2 jalapeno peppers, chopped
1 mild pepper, chopped
1 red pepper, chopped
1 green pepper, chopped
2 large tomatoes, diced
8 oz tomato sauce
2 can rotel tomatoes and chilis
2 15-oz cans dark red kidney
1 beans
3 cup water
4 tbsp chili powder
2 tbsp cumin
1 tbsp paprika
1 tbsp oregano
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 salt, pepper to taste
1 tabasco to taste
1 cup textured vegetable protein
Recipe Preparation
Saute onions, garlic, and peppers in oil until onions are
translucent. Add spices and simmer for two minutes. Stir in remaining
ingredients, adding the TVP last. You can adjust the amount of TVP to
obtain the desired texture and consistency. You can substitute beer
for the water for a more unique flavor. One jalapeno makes a mild
chili (two were used for the cookoff). Simmer from four to six hours.
It's even better the next day.
This was the Third Place Winner and Best of Show trophy winner at
the 4th Annual Lone Star Vegetarian Chili Cookoff held in Dallas in
October. It was submitted by the Animal Connection of Texas members
Mitch and Debbie Thompson, Cam Reilly and Cheryl Witchgers.
