Featured Recipe: Very Veggie Lentil Chili
If you’re trying to get more vegetarian dishes into your diet, chili is a great place to start. Since chili naturally relies on beans, vegetables and assertive seasonings for much of the flavor, it’s easy to disguise the fact that meat isn’t present.
There are lots of ways to make vegetarian chili, but we like this easy lentil version a lot. What’s your favorite meatless chili recipe?

Hi Stacy! It really is delicious. My husband and I had it for dinner two nights ago and while it's filling, we didn't feel too "full" afterward, which can happen with meat chili! It's also a very easy and quick recipe! If you try it, please let us know what you think!

Even your meat eaters will be satisfied with such a thick, rich chili. The texture is similar to “regular” chili, and the flavors are bold enough to transform this lowly, inexpensive legume to a real feast.

What you're saying..
My neighbor as taken my Cheap Fast Good cookbook and will not give it back! We are fighting over it (jokingly of course). Today she made some chicken thing with marmalade or mustard. She said it was delicious.
