My hubby really loves his meat so I used the spices from our meat chili recipe, which basically meant subbing the oregano, basil and garlic powder for celery salt, cajun seasoning, crushed red pepper and Tabasco. Also left out mushrooms and used crushed rather than whole tomatoes. We both totally loved it (and he wanted the mushrooms)! I'm glad to add this to the permanent collection, thanks!

I made this chili for my vegetarian friends during the super bowl and everyone ended up eating it! It tastes even better than Stagg Veggie Chili (my old favorite). I added a small can of green chiles and took out the carrots. I also added a tablespoon of ancho chili powder because we like spicy chili.

I loved this dish! I did have all types of beans on hand but it still turned out lovely. Oh, I added jalapenos and small can of corn kernels :-)

I made this chili for a Cowboy-themed birthday party. Not all of my family eats meat, so this was perfect. EVERYONE loved it, and several were surprised it didn't have meat. The variety of beans/veggies makes up for the lack of meat. The changes I made: no mushrooms (again, picky family); I drained the beans and added 5.5 oz water per can to make up for the liquid lost; I used only 1/2 the amount of cumin, and this is what I did with the spices: after sauteeing the veggies, I combined ALL the spices in a bowl along with 3 TBS. flour. Then I sprinkled this evenly over the veggies, stirring while they sauteed for a few minutes, and then I added in the tomatoes and everything else. This was delicious and perfect for company. I served it with sour cream and cheddar cheese, and wished I'd made a double batch! With a party of 26 people, there wasn't a drop of chili left.

Hearty, filling and interesting - not what I'd expect from a vegetarian chili! Great flavor, not too spicy but you can laways add more. Was scared of adding bean juice but went with the instructions and was really pleased with the results. Made alongside regular meat chili, mixed up leftovers were great the day after. Can't believe how keen my kids are to eat beans!

Awesome and easy. I too rinsed the beans and replaced the juice with water to reduce gas issues. Also my family doesn't care for green peppers, so I replaced with a can of dices green chilis. Very forgiving recipe and the leftovers are fabulous. Thanks!!!

This is good and really easy to throw together. I'm stumped, however, as to what it's lacking. Can't put my finger on it, but the recipe is very forgiving, so maybe I'll find that missing ingredient afterall. I added chopped jalapeno pepper and red pepper flakes to make it spicier. It almost tastes like too much chili powder. I drained the beans as I don't like all that salty liquid. Just need to compensate by adding additional liquid. It's certainly edible, but I wasnt 'wowed' by it.

Great veggie chili! I normally make chili with ground beef, but love vegetarian ones, so decided to give this one a shot. Since I usually do chili in my crockpot, I decided to do the same for this. Didn't use pinto beans as I didn't have any, so added a tin of Heinz beans with pork and molasses (they go into my standard chili anyway). I also drained all of my beans (except for the Heinz ones), added one jalapeno and a generous pinch of spicy red pepper flakes. Towards the end, I took the lid off my crockpot, turned it off and let sit for about an hour as I always find this helps to thicken. Perfect dinner for tonight as we just got a ton of snow!!!

delicious! It is really good as it is, but like any chili, you can out in whatever you want, as long as it is in moderation. A handful of butterbeans was a nice extra ingredient.

This was great! In my effort to get more beans into my kids without their knowing it, I pureed about half of the beans and 1/4 of the tomatoes. This thickened it up, and my husband commented that he loved the thickness of it. I also added a little ground turkey and topped with a sprinkle of raw cheddar cheese and tortilla chips. Delicioso!

I've finally found it- the perfect recipe for bean veggie chili!! I love Stagg's Garden Vegetable Chili, but would like it to be more "fresh" and less salty. Well, this is like a fresher, healthier version of that chili. I just love it! I omitted the mushrooms, added one jalepeno and had to use roasted red peppers for the red ones because I was out of fresh. I made this in the crockpot and it worked out perfectly. I added about 1/2 cup of water but around midday, it was too thin so I added a 6 oz. can of no-salt tomato paste. I love, love, love this recipe! It makes A LOT too- we'll be enjoying this for a few days- yay! I might try freezing some. I served this with Fry Bread I for dinner. Oh, my one-year old loved this too. He just ate and ate and ate. Good for the whole family!

An excellent chili. Omitted corn (too starchy) and carrots (hate mushy carrots) and added zucchini, which is great in this chili. I will use zucchini in it from now on. Needed more spice, so next time I will add a jalapeno pepper.

Great recipe! I added some zuccini squash, omitted the carrots and added a bit of jalepeno pepers. It was a quick and easy dish to make, and my guests loved it.

I think that this is a GREAT recipe, but I think it needs to be just a little bit spicier/hotter. I used a jalapeno, but it still needed a little bit more. I also drizzled in a small amount (about 1 TBSP) of honey. I used no salt added tomatoes and beans and added my own salt. This is just a personal choice because I like to control my salt intake. Overall, it's awesome, and it will be made again. Thanks!

This recipe was easy to make and very delicious. I added some celery instead of carrots, and some corn starch to thicken it up a little. I would definitely make it again!

Delicious taste, filling, healthy & great for cold winter days! Even my husband (who never eats veggie chili) loves it, even more than the meat ones he used to make! The only change I made was I didn't put in the carrots.
