Black Bean/Red Bean Chili

Vegetarian Times Issue: January 1, 2005   p.37

This thick, rich and satisfying chili gets an extra flavor twist from the corn and hominy. Make it with hot or mild chili powder, depending on your taste buds. If you can find canned posole—a processed corn similar to hominy—substitute it for the hominy.

Directions

  1. Heat oil in large pot over medium heat. Add onion, bell pepper, carrots and garlic. Cover and cook to soften the vegetables, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in chili powder, cumin, tomatoes, beans, honey, chiles and water. Bring to a boil, and reduce heat to low. Cook until vegetables are tender and chili is thick, about 45 minutes. Stir in hominy, and cook to warm through.
  2. To serve, ladle into bowls, and garnish with corn kernels, if desired.
