Into My Kitchen: Three-Bean Vegetarian Chili
Although I do love to cook, I fully appreciate a meal that involves throwing a bunch of ingredients into a pot and letting them cook, hence why chili is one of my favorite dishes! Not to mention the fact that a hot bowl of chili is perfect for a winter day. I received the latest edition of Cooking Light earlier this week, which had pictures of chili on the cover…I knew what I was having for dinner this week!
I decided to go with the Three-Bean Vegetarian Chili (click for recipe). I’m not a huge fan of butternut squash, so I replace it with zucchini. Additionally, I have obscene amounts of chicken broth leftover from a recipe I didn’t end up making, so I used chicken broth instead of vegetable broth…I guess it’s not actually vegetarian, but it works for me! Let’s check out the goods:
Topped with cheese…of course!
As I was making it, I kept thinking…”This is sooooo much food!” Not a complaint at all! Consumed with some multigrain tortilla chips, this is definitely a winner.
I’m off to heat up some for lunch! Yum!

I love making chili too. It’s so filling.
ah! i just book marked this recipe
it sounds so easy and so delicious! is it spicy? i hope so!!
by the way your cupcake in the last post is AMAZINGLY INCREDIBLE LOOKINGGGGGGGG
I love it how your last post was an oreo cupcake and this is veggie chili. It looks great!
Yum, it sounds delish!
I just bookmarked this recipe..thanks Susan!
Looks great! Of course the cheese tops it off.
Oh my goodness, that looks great! I think I’ll be making it soon, I love beans.
Oh yum! I love anything with tons of beans in it! I may have to try it!
you would laugh at my last chili “recipe”. it involved once can of health valley spicy black bean (already made) chili, and one can of fire roasted chopped tomatoes, and stirring. And possibly a microwave.
Ohhh that looks good. I really prefer my chili without meat – though I’m insistent that black beans be included. Think that they would be okay subbed for pinto in this one? Is it spicy? I like it spiiiicay.
