1 green bell pepper, diced

2 medium carrots, diced

1 zucchini, diced

1 (14 oz) can diced tomatoes

1/2 tsp oregano

Salt and pepper, to taste

Juice of 1 lime


Tortilla chips or rice for serving (optional) Optional toppings: shredded cheese, sour cream, avocado or cilantro

Instructions


Step 1: Prepare Ingredients


Chopping all the vegetables and rinsing the beans saves time while cooking.

Step 2: Heat Oil


In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat.

Step 3: Sauté Aromatics


Put in diced onion and cook for 2 minutes until softened.

Add minced garlic and sauté another 30 seconds.

Tip: Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, so you don’t burn the garlic.

Step 4: Cook Vegetables


Place bell peppers, carrots and zucchini in the pot. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring frequently.

Tip: The smaller and more uniform you cut your vegetables, the faster they’ll cook.

Step 5: Add Spices


Add chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika and oregano. Stir well to coat the vegetables with spices.

Step 6: Add the Tomatoes and Beans


Add the diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, black beans and kidney beans. Mix everything thoroughly.

Tip: Use fire-roasted tomatoes for additional flavor.

Step 7: Add Broth


Add vegetable broth, stir, and bring the chili to a low simmer.

Tip: Use less broth for thicker stew, more for thinner. Less for a stewy chili, more for a soupy texture.

Step 8: Simmer


Reduce the heat and simmer the chili for 10 to 15 minutes. Stir from time to time to avoid sticking.

Step 9: Adjust Seasoning


Taste the chili, adding salt and pepper as required.

Step 10: Add Lime Juice


For big flavor, add a squeeze of fresh lime juice just before you serve the chili.

Reheat in a pot or microwave and your dash of water or broth, if necessary.

So enjoy your delicious vegetarian chili on a cold evening!
