Absolutely DELICIOUS!! Great quick dinner! My son,who doesn't like chili, loves it. What a tasty vegetarian meal. Winner, winner, vegetarian dinner!

a good rule for most peppers, the longer it cooks the hotter it gets. Good recipe, make your modifications early, like one person said , you can always add more spices later.

I don't miss the meat at all!!!  Since my wife and I went vegetarian last year this has been my go-to chili recipe.  Delish!

Although I used to think meatless chili would be a waste of the other ingredients, I am now a believer. Very tasty! Only had a can of regular diced tomatoes and a can of stewed whole peeled tomatoes in pantry but they filled in nicely for the fire roasted ones. Added some celery because I wanted to get rid of it and use canned green chilies instead of fresh due again to a poorly stocked pantry.  Loved it despite my alterations. Yummy.

When trying a new recipe I try to follow to a tee, but I changed this one a little bit.  Because I use a lot of cumin when I cook I reduced the amount. To taste.  I also reduced to 1/2 an onion.  I have a great vegetable broth I use so it gave the chili a great flavor.  Next time I think I will use tomatoes with chili’s ( like Rotel). My family loves spicy.  I will keep this one in my recipe file.

This is the first vegetarian recipe I have ever made for my family (quarantine food). We are trying to switch to a less meat-heavy diet. It is BY FAR the best chili I've had, and this is coming from a former major carnivore. Unlike some other commenters who wanted less cumin, I like heavy seasoning, so I added 1.5x the cumin (next time I will add even more), triple the oregano, and about 0.75 tbsp of ground white pepper. Also put in about 2 oz of unsweetened baker's chocolate and sweet potato cubes, celery, and corn.
It is so delicious. I can't believe it's healthy. And it requires so few dishes. This makes me excited to try vegetarianism. Served it with a dollop of greek yogurt and chives on top and with a side of cornbread. I'm so glad I found this recipe.

Okay so don't laugh...my prep time is at least an hour maybe more! I peel, cut, and such by hand and add celery, and more bell peppers. It's the 4th(?) time I've made it because it's THAT good but are you all mostly using a food processor for prep?

I'll add my beyond meat ground to this!! Thanks for taking the time to share your recipe.
To the comments against raisins...incase you are ignorant to vegan/ vegetarian diets, iron is difficult to get in our diets. Savory and sweet does in fact mix well together based on the individuals preferences.
You can add dark chocolate with red chili pepper or have you ever heard of brown sugar added to Chilis? And what the hell does age have to do with it all?

This was a wonderful recipe. It is easy to make and quite delicious.

Made a chunky chili 
only 1 can beans (chickpeas). Not a fan of beans. 
substituted with more celery, and sweet potato. Wanted to add corn but was already chunky. If adding sweet potato, then simmer for 45ish minutes

This is a very simple and delicious no meat chili. I made it according to the recipe. Bonus is that it’s zero points on Weight Watchers if you don’t add the cheese or sour cream.

Excellent delicious I added portability mushrooms and raisins.  Love it. I will make. All the time

Easy Vegetarian Chili Will Please The Whole Family

This 3 bean vegetarian chili is made with a combination of black beans, pinto beans, and kidney beans for a deliciously satisfying plant-based meal!

3 Bean Vegetarian Chili

yellow onion, diced

red bell pepper, stemmed, seeded, diced

garlic cloves, minced (about 3 tablespoons)

cumin

chili powder

cayenne pepper

Salt

can black beans,

15 ounces can pinto beans, drained and rinsed

brown sugar

can corn, drained (or 2 cups frozen corn)

parsley

red wine vinegar

In a large pot, add the olive oil, onion, and bell pepper.

Cover and cook, stirring frequently, until the vegetables are softened, about 8 minutes.

Add the garlic, cumin, chili powder, cayenne pepper, and ½ teaspoon salt and continue to cook for 2 minutes.

Add the beans, vegetable broth, tomatoes, oregano, and brown sugar.

Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat then reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer until the chili is thickened, about 25 minutes.

Add the corn and continue to simmer for 5 minutes. (If using frozen corn, simmer for an additional 5 minutes.)

Remove from heat and add the parsley and red wine vinegar. Season with salt to taste.

It was the first time I used beans for a chili recipe and it turn out all good! Thanks also to your topping ideas we enjoyed it all the more! I tried it with cheddar cheese (we love cheese!) and crushed tortilla chips.

This is my 2nd time making this. It's so good. I also added mushrooms to it. Will be making this again and again!
