In a stockpot, add ground beef, onions, pepper, chili powder, garlic, parsley, and cilantro. Stir frequently to mix seasonings and brown meat. When the meat is almost brown, add in 4-6 cups of water (more or less, depending on how soupy or thick you like your chili). Bring to a nice simmer. In a bowl, mix 1/2 cup of cold water and cornstarch. Stir until soupy and blended. SLOWLY add the cornstarch into the chili, blending as you pour. Also add in the finely chopped tomatoes and can of diced tomatoes. Bring back to a simmer. In a bowl, allow the vegetable protein to reconstitute with 1 or more cups of water.
