My Favorite Recipes: easy vegetarian chili recipe!

February 19, 2018 By Noelle 64 Comments

I’ve been promising this one for A WHILE and finally here it is! My favorite and easy vegetarian chili recipe! I swear I make this stuff and usually freeze half (I feel like chili is so good after it’s been frozen too!) but this makes so much which is great if you have a busy week coming up and are trying to eat at home as much as possible or have a big fam!

INGRIDENTS

  • 2 tablespoons oil
  • 1 large onion, diced
  • 4 cloves of garlic, finely minced
  • 1-3 tablespoons chili powder (more will be spicier)
  • 2 tablespoons of cumin
  • 1 teaspoon oregano
  • 1/4 – 2 teaspoons of chili flakes (the more chili flakes the spicier it will be)
  • 2 peppers, diced (I used 1 red and 1 yellow pepper)
  • 2 carrots, diced
  • 3 stalks of celery, diced
  • 2 – 28oz cans of whole tomatoes and their juice (use your hands to roughly crush the tomatoes)
  • 2 can of beans, drained and rinsed (I used kidney and black beans)
  • 2 cup of frozen corn (you could use fresh but frozen is easy and works great)
  • Salt to taste (you’ll need quite a lot)
  • Optional toppings: feta, sour cream, cheddar cheese, cilantro, diced avocados or green onion. My personal fav is feta and avocado!
  1. Heat oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add onion and sauté for about 3 minutes. Add garlic and sauté 1 minute more. Add spices and cook stirring for about 30 seconds.
  2. Add peppers, carrots, and celery and cook for about 5 minutes, or until they just start to soften. Add tomatoes and their juice and bring to a simmer. Once the chili begins to simmer, reduce the heat to medium-low. You want the chili to be at a low simmer with the lid off.
  3. Continue to cook the chili, stirring occasionally, for 20 minutes. Add beans and corn and let the chili return to a simmer. Cook for 5 more minutes or until the corn and beans have heated through.
  4. Generously salt to taste.
  5. Serve on its own or topped with one (or all!) of the delicious toppings.
  6. Enjoy!
