Nothing is better than the aroma of home cooked chili simmering in the kitchen on a cool winter day.  Reminds me of my grandma’s house.  Make a huge pot of black bean vegetarian style chili and use the left overs for tacos, over nachos, or to use in fiesta quinoa or even better,  stuffed avocados.  For a hardier protein version add 1 pound ground turkey and chicken stock.”

 

>> INGREDIENTS 

  • 4 cups water
  • 8 ounces dried black or pinto beans
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • ½ onion diced
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon parsley
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder
  • 1 ½ tsp. ground cumin
  • ¼ teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon oregano
  • 3 tomatoes pealed and diced
  • 1 cup vegetable stock

 

DIRECTIONS

1.  Rinse and soak beans over night.

2.  Rinse and strain beans.  Add beans to a stock pot and cover with water.  Place lid on pot and cook for 2 hours over medium heat.

3.  Add olive oil to a frying pan and sauté onion and garlic on low until transparent and tender.

4.  Add sauteed onion and garlic, salt, parsley, chili powder, cumin, paprika, oregano, tomatoes, and vegetable stock to beans.

Chef Notes:

*For a fuller flavor, if you are not concerned about being 100% vegetarian, use chicken stock in place of vegetable stock.
