Instructions

Into a large pot, sauté the onion on medium heat for around 5 minutes or until translucent.
Add in your finely chopped pepper and sauté for another 5 minutes or until soft.
Now add your seasoning, jalapeno pepper, spices and garlic. Cook for another minute and give it all a good stir.
Next add the canned tomatoes (with juice), vegetable stock and tomato paste. You want to stir this till well combined then increase your heat to high.
Lastly, add your beans and lentils and reduce heat to medium. Cook till thickened for another 30-40 minutes. Stir frequently to avoid burning.
Garnish with cilantro and green onion.
Enjoy hot! Tip: if you have some vegan meltable cheese on hand, then this is where you spice things up!

Notes

Freezer friendly. To freeze, let the chili completely cool before transferring into a tight sealed container and place into your freezer. To reheat simply thaw and transfer to a pot and cook till hot throughout.
