Vegetarian Chili

Vegetarian Chili

My family requests this vegetarian chili over the traditional. It’s quick and easy and you can add a variety of toppings (sour cream, chopped fresh tomatoes, chopped green onion, and shredded cheese) to add even more interest.

1 tablespoon oil

1 cup chopped onion

1 garlic clove, minced

1 - 14.5ounce can diced tomatoes

1 - 15.5 ounce can kidney beans, drained and rinsed

2 - 15.5 ounce cans chili beans, undrained

1 ½ teaspoons cumin

1 ½ teaspoons chili powder

1 - 15 ounce can whole kernel corn, drained and rinsed

In a large saucepan, heat the oil and cook the onion until translucent, add the garlic and cook one minute more.  Stir in the remaining ingredients and bring to a boil.  Reduce heat to low and simmer for 20 minutes, stirring every few minutes. Serve warm. Serves 8
