Quick and Easy Vegetarian Chili

I went through a veg phase, and this was a staple. I'm back to being an omnivore, but I still make this once a week or so. It's great topped with a little cheese (regular or soy) and a chunk of cornbread. If you're a Weight Watcher, this is 3 points for a 2 cup serving. If you're a die-hard carnivore, you can add ground meat, but I think it's much fresher and tastier without.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Drain and rinse beans and corn.
  2. 2
    Heat oil in a large soup pot.
  3. 3
    Add onions, garlic and bell pepper, and cook just until onions are translucent and bell peppers are bright green.
  4. 4
    Add tomatoes, vegetable juice, beans, corn, chili powder and cumin. (I use a LOT of chili powder and cumin).
  5. 5
    Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer for about 30 minutes.
  6. 6
    More vegetable juice can be added if chili gets too thick.

Buonas noches and thank you for helping me put a tasty and healthy meal on the table quickly tonight. I made a couple changes but nothing major. I only had one small green pepper so I used an orange pepper for the second one. Then, I had a bunch of part used cans of various beans that I had opened for other recipes on the tour. So, red kidney beans, black beans and pinto beans all went into the pot. I served it with flour tortillas on the side, a sprinkling of Monterrey jack cheese and a dollop of reduced fat sour cream. Made for Chow Hounds on ZWT5.

    Very easy to make, & it freezes well, too! I used a red & a yellow bell pepper along with almost 2 teaspoons of chili powder & 1/2 teaspoon of cumin! That, along with the spicy juice was enough of a kick for us! Very, very tasty, & my veggie son & his wife would love it, I'm sure! Will keep this recipe around!

    Simple, quick veggie chili. I used red peppers, rather than green, and I added a bit of chipotle tabasco. Made for PAC Spring 2007. Thanks for a good basic recipe!

    Good solid veggie chili. I had to make some subs which, honestly, I wouldn't recommend. I used regular veggie juice. Make sure to use something with some kick. And I left out the chili powder for my kids, but I found it a little bland. For the recipe I made the review would be 3 stars. But as written it's 4. Thanks for a good one to try.
