Vegetarian Chilli

vegetarian_chili

Back when I was eating meat regularly, beef chilli on a Sunday night was one of my favourite things. This vegetarian version is a wonderful substitute and will please even the most avid lover of meat. It’s packed full of earthy and hearty beans and a bowl full leaves you feeling satisfied and nourished. I use a combination of black beans and adzuki beans and pack it full of fresh zucchini, red peppers and carrot. It’s incredibly easy to make and is a perfect mid-week meal.
