VEGETARIAN 5 BEAN CHILI

Vegetarian 5 Bean Chili image

This recipe evolved from my beef/venison chili recipe while I was pregnant and couldn't tolerate meat in my diet. It's a hearty chili that fills my 6 quart crock pot to the brim. I recommend Muir Glen brand for all of the tomato ingredients, fire roasted if you can find it, organic beans and veggies, and Penzey's chili powders (I use medium hot and regular heat).

1 (15 ounce) can dark red kidney beans
1 (15 ounce) can light kidney beans
1 (15 ounce) can vegetarian refried beans

Not a fan of this chili. It was too soupy and the flavor was just off.

I thought this chili was just okay. It was a bit bland and the beans were a bit too mushy.

This chili was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. Next time I'll use less cayenne pepper.
