Chunky Vegetarian Chili

This recipe comes from Cookinglight.com, Simon and I made it with our friend Lauren and it was super simple and really successful. perfect for a post-big-snow-storm-day. The ingredients include:

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 cups chopped onion
1/2 chopped yellow bell pepper
1/2 chopped green bell pepper
2 cloves of garlic, minced
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 1/2 tablespoon chili powder
1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon oregano
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
2 16 oz. cans stewed tomatos
2 15 oz cans black beans
1 15 oz can kidney beans
1 15 oz can pinto beans



basically the whole thing was just chopping the peppers and onion, mixing the spices, and heating it all up in a pot. we did have to rinse and drain the beans, which i have never done before...but..it was simple


onions and peppers and oil first



then add everything else!



lauren also brought some delicious bread from clearflour. one was pan de mie, and the other was a seven grain/sourdough/seeded crust bread.

both yummy.



finished product! i don't know what the picture is sideways but with some sharp cheddar cheese on top, this chili was delicious. really sweet, probaly from the brown sugar and the onions. and once everything was in the pot it only simmered for 30 minutes before it was all done.
