Hearty Vegetarian Tofu Chili

Recipe #111128 | 1¼ hours | 20 min prep | add private note

This is a delicious colourful chili with a perfect blend of many vegetables with tofu in a thick spicy tomato base. This original recipe came from Runner's World magazine, although I have altered it to suit my likings. Frying tofu gives it a more meat like texture. For those who like chili very spicy, more chili powder may be added.

thanks to all the reviewers I made this and even for a non cook like myself this was EASY! Iloved that there aren't 101 different ingredients. The only thing I really underestimated the simmer time. Also, like others commented I would not include carrots next time. I had tons of leftovers which served well for lunch the entire week!

    My expectations were blown out of the water with this chili! I heard someone on the radio debating whether or not it was chili weather yet. While it really wasn't (it was 94 degrees today) my leftovers will be ready for a arctic cold front that is blowing through tomorrow! I cut the tofu into small cubes, as I like the texture better that way. Other than that and adding a little extra hot sauce, I followed every other instruction to the letter. So delicious, thank you for such a great recipe!

    This was so delicious! I added about 1 T. fresh chopped clili pepper during step 3 to give it more kick. It came out wonderfully and I will definitely make it again.
