Scooter's Vegan Tempeh Chili

After switching over to a vegetarian lifestyle I came up with this dish to satisfy my autumn and winter cravings for a warm vegan chili. A great dish that comes together fast and since it is packed with fiber/protein it will fill you up.

  • 1 red bell pepper, cut into bite-size pieces
  • 1 yellow bell pepper, cut into bite-size pieces
  • 1 orange bell pepper, cut into bite-size pieces
  • 1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes

Directions

Step 1
Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add carrots; cook until tender, about 5 minutes. Add onion and chopped garlic; cook and stir until aromatic, about 3 minutes. Add chili powder, paprika, garlic powder, and cumin; cook and stir for 1 minute. Toss in tempeh, red bell pepper, yellow bell pepper, and orange bell pepper; cook and stir until tempeh is coated in the spices, about 5 minutes.

Step 2
Pour tomatoes, black beans, cannellini beans, kidney beans, corn, and brown sugar into the tempeh mixture. Reduce heat to low. Simmer, covered, until flavors are well blended, about 30 minutes.

Cook’s Notes:

You can use any bean that you prefer but having 3 types of beans makes it look colorful.
