The Best Vegetarian Chili EVER!: Main Image

Quick Facts

Servings: 8
Prep Time: 15 min.
Cook Time: 40 min.
Total: 55 min.
The secret ingredient—unsweetened cocoa powder—creates the smokiness of traditional meat chili but is a much healthier, vegetarian-friendly version.

Ingredients

  • 1 can kidney beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 can pinto beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 cup frozen corn
  • 1 red bell pepper, diced
  • 1 green bell pepper, diced
  • 1 red onion, diced
  • 1 28 oz can crushed tomatoes
  • 1 cup vegetable broth
  • 5 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 heaping tbsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp coriander
  • 1 tsp Ghirardelli unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp (or a bit less) cayenne pepper
  • A couple splashes of soy sauce
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • Black pepper and paprika to taste
  • Optional toppings, such as sour cream, cheese, and tortilla chips

Directions

  • Chop the garlic, onion, and bell peppers. Sauté lightly over medium-high heat in 1 to 2 tsp olive oil. Meanwhile, wash the beans until all of the canning liquid is gone.
  • Once the veggies have sautéed for about 5 minutes, add everything else into the pot (tomatoes, beans, spices, etc.). Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 30 minutes or longer, as needed.
  • Once the chili is done cooking, you can top it with anything you like: tortilla chips, a tablespoon of cheese, fat-free or low-fat sour cream or Greek yogurt.
