Directions
My wife, Susan recently won a chili challenge with her recipe for meatless chili. I thought you might be interested in that one. Heat oil in a 4½ quart Dutch Oven or large pot. Add celery, green pepper, onion and garlic; cook covered till vegetables are tender but not brown. Stir in UNDRAINED tomatoes, drained beans, raisins, vinegar, chili powder, parsley, salt, basil, oregano, cumin, allspice, pepper, pepper sauce and bay leaf. Bring to boiling; reduce heat and simmer covered for 1 ½ hours. Stir in beer and cashews. Return to boiling; simmer uncovered 30 minutes more, or until chili is desired consistency. Remove bay leaf. Sprinkle cheese atop each serving. We really enjoy this recipe hope you do also. Let us know. Mike (VJFX10A) State College,PA PROUDLY formatted and posted by Elaine Radis; his REAL Auntie :) :)
