Vegetarian Chili

You won't even miss the meat in this chili recipe!  The 8 different veggies and 3 types of beans make it very hearty and filling. I like to top mine with non-fat greek yogurt, it tastes just like sour cream.


2 Tbsp Olive Oil
1 Onion, diced
1 Red Bell Pepper, diced
1 Green Bell Pepper, diced
5 cloves Garlic, chopped
10 oz Mushroom Caps, diced
1 Jalepeno Pepper, chopped

1 15 oz can Cannellini beans, drained and rinsed

  3. Add the rest of the olive oil.
  4. Add mushrooms, jalapeño pepper, squash, and carrots. Stir and cook for 5 minutes.
