Veggie Beef Chili image

"Folks who like their chili hot really get a kick out of this zippy recipe," pens Amy Baxter of Bishop, California. "I serve steaming bowls of it with oven-fresh corn bread. It's chockfull of garden goodness-with two kinds of squash , tomatoes, green chilies, black beans, etc.-that you can leave out the meat altogether and not miss it a bit."

I love this chili! It's so easy to make and it's always a hit with my family. I usually double the recipe so that I have leftovers for lunch the next day.

This chili was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either. I think it needed more seasoning. I would probably try a different recipe next time.

This chili is a lifesaver on busy weeknights. It's so easy to make, and it's always a crowd-pleaser. I usually serve it with rice or cornbread, and it's always a hit.

I've made this chili several times now, and it's always a hit. I love that it's so versatile. I've used different types of beans, vegetables, and even different types of meat. It always turns out great.

This chili is a great way to use up leftover vegetables. I had some leftover corn, black beans, and bell peppers, and I threw them all into the chili. It turned out great! The chili was hearty and flavorful, and it was a hit with my family.

This chili was a disappointment. It was very bland and lacked any depth of flavor. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong. I would not recommend this recipe.

I'm not a vegetarian, but I really enjoyed this veggie beef chili. The texture of the lentils was very similar to ground beef, and the overall flavor was delicious. I will definitely be making this again.

This is my new favorite chili recipe! It's so flavorful and comforting. I love the smoky flavor from the chipotle peppers. I also appreciate that this recipe is relatively low in sodium, so I can feel good about eating it.

The chili was a bit too bland for my taste. I added some extra chili powder and cumin, and that helped a lot. I also think it would be better with some diced green bell pepper and jalapeƱo.

This chili is so easy to make and it's always a crowd-pleaser. I love that it's a one-pot meal, so there's less cleanup involved. I also appreciate that it's a healthier version of chili, with plenty of veggies and lean beef.

I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out great! The chili had a nice balance of flavors and was not too spicy. I served it with sour cream, shredded cheese, and diced avocado, and it was a hit with my family.

This veggie beef chili is a delicious and hearty dish that's perfect for a cold winter day. The flavors are rich and complex, and the texture is perfect. I especially love the addition of corn and black beans, which add a nice sweetness and crunch. O
