Ingredients

  • 1 large Spanish onion, chopped
  • 1 green bell pepper, chopped
  • 1 red bell pepper, chopped
  • 1 yellow bell pepper, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 10 ounces veggie crumbles
  • 28 ounces crushed tomatoes
  • 28 ounces diced tomatoes, undrained
  • 19 ounces red kidney beans, undrained
  • 19 ounces romano beans, undrained
  • 19 ounces black beans, undrained
  • 12 ounces corn, drained
  • 4 tablespoons chili powder
  • 1 tablespoon cumin
  • 1 tablespoon vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon oregano
  • 4 garlic cloves, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon dried chipotle powder (optional)

Method

  • Using a large pot, saute the chopped vegetables in the olive oil until soft.
  • Crumble in the fake meat and stir a bit.
  • Add all of the canned stuff and stir.
  • Add all of the seasonings and simmer for 30 minutes, adding a bit of water if you like it thinner.
  • Taste and tweak; if you like it spicier I recommend the chipotle powder. Hot sauce will do it too.
