Vegetarian Chili

This is a great recipe if you're going to be gone all day and don't want to cook when you get home. Just toss it all in and leave it alone. You'll have a healthy, hearty meal when you return.

You will need:
1 can of black beans (drained and rinsed)
1 can of pinto beans (drained and rinsed)
1 can of kidney beans (drained and rinsed)
1 can of light beer
1/2 -1 cup of water
1 can of diced tomatoes
1 can of tomato sauce
1 can of corn
1 potato peeled and diced
1 small sweet potato (half large)  peeled and diced
1 small onion diced
1 small zucchini and/or yellow squash, diced
1/2 cup nacho jalapeƱos (optional)
3 Tablespoons chili powder
1 Tablespoon ground cumin
a pinch of salt and a pinch of pepper
1-2 dashes of cinnamon
1 Tablespoon of brown sugar
Plain greek yogurt
cheese

* I always opt for "no salt added" or "low sodium" beans and canned veggies when at all possible.


  1. Dump all the ingredients into the crock pot except for the yogurt and the cheese.
  2. Cook on low for 6-8 hrs. 
  3. Serve with cheese and greek yogurt or eat it plain.


Makes about 6 ish servings, freezes well.
