Recipes | 4 Bean Chunky Chili (Must Try, Meat Lovers Approved!!)

▢ 1 carton of veggie stock

▢ 2-4 cups of water depending on desired thickness

▢ 2 8oz can of tomato

▢ 2 cups lentils

▢ 1.5 cups diced tomatoes

▢ 1 can of black beans

▢ 1 can of chili beans

▢ 1 can of kidney beans

▢ 1 onion

▢ 1 orange bell pepper

▢ 1 yellow bell pepper

▢ Cilantro to taste

▢ 3 tbsp chili powder

▢ 1 tbs garlic

1. Add the carton of veggie stock, 2 tomato paste cans, and 2-4 cups of water depending on desired thickness to your pot. Turn stove on to medium.

2.  Add the lentils first since those need longer to cook. I bought lentils that didn’t need to be soaked. Wait 10 minutes.

3. Dice 1.5 cups of tomatoes or you can buy pre-diced in a can.

4. Add black beans, chili beans, and kidney beans.

5. Add the seasoning mix listed above, stir, and let sit for 15-20 min.

6.  Chop your veggies while you wait. I used orange and yellow bell peppers and onions but you can choose which veggies you want to incorporate. After the 15-20 minutes in step 5 have passed, add the veggies to your chili.

7. Wait for it to thicken and your veggies to soften some, this usually takes another 10-15 minutes.. and you’re done! Enjoy!
