I made this chili in a slow cooker using Morning Star Brand soy crumbles and made up and added 2 of my dad's special chili gravy and it was truly out of this world amazing and delicious. I served it as part of a "Customize Your Own Bowl of Chili Bar" at the Surprise 70th Birthday Party my boyfriend and I threw for my mother this weekend. It met with rave reviews from our guests. Even with out the addition of my dad's chili gravy, it's a great recipe and the recipe author is correct, "They'll never know it's vegetarian!" My guests had no idea and were really surprised when I told them that in addition to being delicious that it was healthy for them and free of animal protein.
