Slow Cooker Vegetarian Chili

Submitted by: CHEF_MEG
Slow Cooker Vegetarian Chili

Introduction

The secret to this hearty vegetarian chili is butternut squash. It holds its shape and adds a layer of flavor and sweetness. The secret to this hearty vegetarian chili is butternut squash. It holds its shape and adds a layer of flavor and sweetness.
Number of Servings: 8

Ingredients

    2 teaspoons canola oil
    1 large onion, diced
    2 stalks celery, diced
    2 carrots, diced
    2 cloves garlic, chopped
    1 bell pepper, diced
    2 tablespoons dark chili powder
    2 teaspoons ground cumin
    1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
    1 (29-ounce) can crushed tomatoes
    3 (15.5 oz) cans red kidney or black beans, rinsed and drained
    12 ounces butternut squash, peeled and diced (about 3 cups)
    1 cup vegetable stock




Tips


Directions

NOTE: Sauteing the vegetables before adding them to the slow cooker creates a layer of flavor. Do not skip this step.
--
Heat the oil in a saute pan, then add the onions, carrots and celery. Saute for four minutes, until the vegetables start to soften. Add the garlic and bell pepper, stir and saute another 2 minutes.
Add the spices and cook for one minute, stirring constantly. Remove the pan from heat.

Add the vegetables and the remaining ingredients to the slow cooker and stir to combine. Cover and cook on low for six hours.

Serving Size: Makes 8 one-cup servings.

    So healthy and delicious! I omitted the vegetable stock because in my experience crockpot dishes come out pretty watery even when you don't add any liquid. I got a great thick stew-like consistency and so much flavor! Yum! - 12/4/11

    I am NOT a vegan, vegetarian or a person who can get buy on any sort of a no-meat diet. I am an omnivore with carnivore leanings, so I tried this chili with the faith I've picked up by trying Chef Meg's other delightful recipes. My name's not Mikey, but I liked it! REALLY liked it! - 12/22/11

    This is fantastic! I cooked longer than required, for about 12 hours on low. I added some organic jalapeno sauce when served. I will make this many times - it is fantastic. Chef Meg is right, the butternut squash really makes this dish. - 1/1/12

    Used this recipe as a foundation for a chili cook-off. Scrapped the carrots...added soy crumbles for meat texture. Heated it up with some red chilis and jalapenos...some extra chili powder...added mushrooms and corn. Didn't win, but lots of compliments and we sold about 6 quarts for charity. - 1/24/12

    Made it tonight. It is delightful and fantastic. When I make it next, I will up the spices as I like more fire but most will be happy with this. I used homemade vegetable stock modeled on both Dr. Weil and Chuck Hughes' stock recipe. It is very hearty. Add saltines or cornbread. Homerun! - 1/6/12

    Very, very good. I toned down the spices a bit. Also skipped the broth. It didn't effect the portion size by much. Added about 2T. Greek Yogurt and an ounce of extra sharp cheddar. Ate with a small bag of Doritos. - 1/3/12

    Made recipe 3 times, my best makeover entailed: lower sodium (less than 100mg/serving) by using re-hydrated dried beans, low sodium veggie broth, 1/2 no salt added canned tomatoes & 1/2 fresh diced tomatoes, removed the flakes, used mild version of chili powder and added oregano. - 2/15/12

    We are having a snow storm tonight in Cleveland, Oh, could not get to the store, however, I did have all the ingredients to make this dish----- even though I usually put ground turkey in my chili. This was great, rather hearty and real tasty, I did not miss the meat at all. This is a keeper!!! - 12/27/11

    Great chili, tastes just like the one's we make at home. We didn't have the squash on hand but we did add Boca vegetarian fake ground meat and I couldn't tell the difference. I would definitely make this again. - 10/10/12

    What a lovely and unique blend of flavors! Slightly sweet and perfectly spicy (I added extra red pepper flakes and garlic). Because I'm so particular about my chili, I did not expect to be wowed. Boy was I pleasantly surprised. I have a new, super healthy, go-to chili recipe now. Thanks, Chef Meg - 4/3/12

    I wasn't sure I'd like the combination of the sweet squash with the chili seasonings, but it was delicious. It makes a BIG batch, so if you have a smaller slow cooker, put about 1/3 of the recipe into a pot & simmer it on low. I used 2 cans pinto beans and 1 can kidney beans. - 9/17/12

    I was out of garlic, and substituted mushroom broth for standard veggie broth. I didn't have 6 hours, either, so it cooked for about 3 on high. Still came out well, but that crockpot was full, even before I trickled in a little broth. It's just for me, so I'll be enjoying it for a while. - 12/7/12

    Followed this recipe to the letter and was pretty disappointed, it's not spicy at all! It came out looking more like a thick stew than a chili.

    Recommendations: Add 2 tbs hot sauce, double (or triple) the spices, omit one can of beans, & add an additional can of tomatoes. - 1/30/12

    It's nice to finally see Chef Meg come out with vegetarian & vegan options for us. If you drop the oil & do a water saute, then this fits with the Forks Over Knives food guidelines for a long & healthy life. - 1/26/12

    Not just for veggitarians! I love this recipe! I use chinese five spice in place of 2 tsp of the chili powder. (Also chili powder is different then cayanne powder.) I use a mix of beans, and add a bag of corn. Serve with polenta or cornbread:) - 1/26/12

    I simply love butternut squash and never thought of it being in a chilli dish before. DELISH! - 1/26/12

    Mmmh... I am going to make this for tonight, so we'll have dinner ready when my kids and I get home after our Karate classes. Thank you! :-) - 1/26/12

    We'd have to add the ground beef, and back off on the pepper flakes, though. - 1/26/12

    This is an excellent chili recipe! It was even better because a friend of mine gave me a butternut squash from her garden. - 1/23/12

    This stuff is so fantastic, and only gets better as leftovers! I love the sweetness that the bnut squash gives this, and I like to spice it up to balance that out. I use a loose bouillon powder + water instead of stock, and a mix of black, kidney, and pinto beans. Will definitely make again - 1/18/12

    Can this really have over 18 grams of fiber per serving ?? In any case, I found it delicious :) - 1/15/12

    This was great! After reading some of the other comments I added mushrooms and deleted the vegetable broth. I used diced tomatoes with their liquid and the consistency was just right. I also added a little more hot pepper flakes. I think I will serve it over brown rice the next time - 1/8/12

    Just made it today! It was very good. However, several hours after only eating a very small serving of it, I am not feeling well. It is WAY TOO HOT for me. Otherwise, it was very tasty. - 1/8/12
