How many healthy vegetables can you add to a pot of chili? Six! Celery, carrots, bell peppers, zucchini, tomatoes, and fresh spinach. If you count the onions and garlic, you have eight! That’s a lot of vitamins right there. Vegetables are a lifeline to good health so this meatless chili is a good way to get a variety of veggies in one delicious meal. Then there are two kinds of beans for plenty of protein and fiber. Whip out a couple of my no knead crusty rolls and dig in!! ????
We don’t like spicy food and I cannot find a mild chili powder so I make my own mixture and it’s not spicy at all. My chili powder recipe uses paprika, cumin, oregano, garlic & onion powder, allspice, and cloves.
I don’t use cayenne at all but you can add a little if you like. Click here for my chili powder recipe.
A couple of notes on this chili: This is a fast recipe so the veggies must be cut small so they cook through nice and soft. Cut them all in 1/4-inch pieces. To save time, prep only the onion, garlic, carrots, and celery to start. Prep the rest while the chili cooks. You may have to adjust the amount of chili powder to your taste. Chili is a good meal to make in advance because it’s even better the next day. Click here for the recipe. – Jenny Jones
These are terrific, Jenny. Thank you. I’d love to know which meals can be frozen. And also adaptations for crock pots.
Jenny,
Love your recipes. I will give this Chili a try…sounds delicious. Craving something sweet lately so whipped up your quick and easy Chocolate Pudding…yum!!! Even better with a little Whipping Cream on top. your Pizza recipe is SO EASY and can be made within an hour…why call for pizza delivery? Keep the great recipes coming. Thanks for your efforts.
Are the nutritional values for fast vegetable bean chili available
This dish looks like a winner, think I will add sweet italian sausage.
I will try this recipe. I made your pizza, and think it is outstanding. The crust is to die for. Thanks so much, keep them coming.
Jenny,
You are so funny! Thanks for your chili recipe. I love that you make cooking fun and make me laugh while trying to learn. That, and I like your recipes! Mostly. Please don’t stop. ?
Jenny,
You make it so easy to print your recipes.
Almost everything I have tried is very good.
I wish there was some way to forward your recipes to friends.
Good home cooking!
Thanks

p.s. I also am Polish. My mother was born in Poland.
You are, too. Right?
At the bottom of each recipe there is a series of small icons where you can share the recipe on facebook, email it, or if you click the blue and white cross, you will find several easy ways to send a recipe to someone.
Jenny,
I clicked on email, but nothing happens.
Can’t find a place for the email address for my friend.
I must be doing something wrong!
Will keep trying.
It may be because you are in the blog. Go to the recipe and try the icons at the bottom there. I tested it on my computer and phone and an email pops up every time.
Gerri, If the people you want to have the recipe, don’t have a computer to receive it. Just print and Mail it. They will love you for sending it to them. Will only cost one stamp.
Thanks for solving the “print” problem for the Vegetable Bean Chili. I sat here for half-an-hour trying to solve why I couldn’t print it. Love your recipes.
