    Vegitarian Chili

    Recipe Introduction


    Here is an excellent Vegitarian Chili recipe that
    the whole family loved (even 2 year old!). The
    next time I make it, I have an idea that will stretch
    out the recipe even more and give me 2 extra frozen dinners.

    Once the chili is made, divide into 3 parts (or two,
    depending on the size of your family) and freeze. When
    you are ready to eat one of the portions (thaw out the
    portion a bit in the fridge), cook up about 1lb (or so)
    of ground beef and then throw it into the chili and warm
    it all up. Top with cheese... YUM!

    I suppose that you could put the ground beef (and/or
    italian sausage) in the crock pot with the rest of
    the stuff...however, my crock was barely big enough
    (6 qts, I think) to hold all of this.


    List of Ingredients




    Coconut Oil (or olive oil)
    1-2 diced Yellow onions
    5 or 10 minced Garlic cloves (depends on your liking - I use 10!)
    1 diced Red pepper
    1 diced green pepper
    2 cans (28oz) crushed tomatoes
    1 Tbs.Cumin
    1 Tsp. Cayenne (or to your taste)
    1 pkg frozen corn
    3-4 cups black beans (soaked from night before)
    1.5 cups Salsa
    Sea Salt to taste
    Grated raw cow or goats milk cheddar (for topping)

    Recipe



    - Saute onions in the Coconut oil.
    - Wait until the onions are cooking for a few minutes, then add garlic.
    - After onion/garlic turn golden brown, add cumin, cayenne, (& any other spices you might like).
    - Fry all that for a few minutes.
    - Next, add the peppers, saute them for a few minutes.
    - Put the crushed tomatoes, corn, beans and salsa into the crock pot, and add the onion mixture.
    - Cook on low about 10 hours.
    - Serve with grated cheddar if desired.
