Author: The Edgy Veg
Recipe type: Main
Cuisine: American
Ingredients
- 1 cup onion, chopped
- 4 cloves of garlic, chopped
- 1 cup TVP** (optional)
- 1 can diced tomatoes
- 1 can tomato paste
- 1 can dark beer
- Double shot of espresso
- 1 can kidney beans (drained)
- 1 can black beans (drained)
- 1 cup mushrooms, sliced (you can also substitute for cannedif preferred)
- ½ cup REAL maple syrup … not that fake crap
- 2 tsp cumin
- 1 tsp basil
- ½ tsp oregano
- 1 tsp cayenne pepper
- 2 tbsp red chili flakes
- salt and pepper(to taste)
Instructions
- Instead of the last two spices feel free to use 1 packet of pre-made chili spice.
- In a very large pot on medium heat, begin to mix all ingredients, adding in the spices last.
- Bring the chili to a boil then reduce heat to simmer for 1 hour on low heat.
- Please taste while it is simmering… it is hard not to!
Notes
This chili gets better with age ( as most vegetarian recipes do) so it is even better a day or two later after the spices flavours have been infused into the beans and TVP goodness. You can also freeze leftovers and save some for next week. Or take it to your next Tail Gate!
