Ingredients
2 Tbsp. Olive oil1 Large White Onion, diced5 Cloves Fresh Garlic, minced6 Cups tomato juice1 C water1 Tbsp. + 1 tsp. Chili Powder1 t garlic powder1/2 t cumin1 t pink, or sea saltdash pepper2 C TVP, (see blog post for more info)7 Cups hydrated kidney beans, (canned or presoaked)2 Cans diced tomatoes
Directions
In a large pot (at least 6 Qt), or Instant Pot, saute onion until softened and slightly translucent. Add minced garlic and saute for another minute. Remove from heat. Add tomato juice and spices. Using and immersion blender, puree the onions and garlic, until smooth and juice is more like a sauce.
Next, add the rest of the ingredients.
If cooking in an Instant Pot, secure lid and press Soup button. Use the timer keys to set it for 7 minutes. Come back when it's done - use time to make cornbread! (Recipe here!)
If cooking on a stove top, bring chili to a boil, and then reduce heat. Allow chili to simmer for about 45 minutes, stirring occasionally. Chili is done when beans are very tender, and flavors are fully blended.
Serve with choice of hot sauce if you like it with heat.
