Veg Chili Recipes

Great starter recipe. Easy to add beef, game meat, or chicken or more vegis.

Also makes a great chip dip by adding cheese and sour cream (recommend adding to individual servings and not the entire pot).

This is a loose guideline to making a very chunky vegetarian friendly chili. I roughly estimated quantities to scale down what I usually make to a four-dinner batch. Spices are also estimates and should be adjusted to taste. I use dry beans to make a batch of beans first, but here I substituted canned for convenience. Use whichever serves you best. Experiment and have fun!

I modified this recipe from Food Network to include lean ground turkey, cut out the refried beans, and add more spice! The recipe is calculated for 8 12 oz. servings with chicken broth. You could certainly make smaller servings if you're interested in reducing calories.

quick and easy chili

This is a Rachel Ray 30 Minute Meal. Very, very quick and tasty chili. I recommend cooking it the day before you want to serve it and letting the flavor set in. It is so much more yummy the next day!

Chili without TVP, Tofu, or meat. Use Bulgur instead. Lots of Fibre and no soy.
Vary the spices to your taste.

Can make this vegan by omitting or replacing cheese. It's actually a really pretty chili if you want to make a nice presentation.

Also, this recipe isn't well written, because I wrote it off memory several months ago just to share it on Facebook. I may improve later.

Prepare TVP by soaking it in tomato juice. (2 c. TVP and 2c. tomato juice. Then prepare 2 Alarm chili as you normally would, package directions, extra ingredients, etc...simply using the TVP for beef.

Chili For Dinner Tonight

WARNING: this is not a quickie 5 ingredient recipe but it makes a lot and I think it's tasty, healthy and excellent, high in protein and fiber, low in fat and carbs. I love chili and my own has always included a lot of vegetables. This is a combination of a few recipes I've taken tips from (thank you, Rachel Ray and Kaylen Denny) because ground turkey needs a bit of a flavor boost to make a great chili. This recipe is very tweak-able: I like spice so use a lot of it but it definitely can be toned down for individual tastes. For best taste and texture this should be simmered on low heat for at least an hour.
