Ingredients
- 2 tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
- 1 cup onion finely chopped, sweet white variety
- 1 cup red pepper finely chopped
- 1 jalapeño seeded, finely chopped, medium
- 2 tbsp chili powder
- 1 tbsp. oregano dried
- 1 tbsp. cumin powder
- 1 tsp. smoked paprika
- cinnamon dash
- 1/8 tsp. cayenne pepper
- 2 cloves garlic pressed

- 2 cups vegetable stock unsalted
- 1 tbsp. tomato paste
- 1 red kidney beans canned, drained and rinsed

- 1 black beans canned, drained and rinsed
- 1 cup green lentils I used Bob's Red Mill, cooked
- cilantro chopped Green onion, for garnish
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.
