Meat-Lovers' Vegetarian Chili
3
J. Phillips
"This is a thick, hearty vegetarian chili that is a hit at parties even among die-hard meat eaters. The TVP gives it the texture of ground beef, and the chiles give it a nice depth of flavor. Cook it in the slow cooker or on the stovetop. This recipe really benefits from using the best quality ingredients you can find. Also, I find this tastes best after sitting in the fridge overnight and reheating the next day. Serve with grated cheese on top."

Footnotes
- Cook's Notes:
- Use your favorite beer!
- For low-moderate spice, start with 1/2 to 1 jalapeno, but 2 or 3 (or more!) may be needed if you like it hot. I'd recommend starting on the low side and checking the spice level after 3 to 4 hours of cooking, adding more jalapeno as needed.
- The longer this chili cooks, the better. Alternatively, add all ingredients to a large pot and simmer on the stove over low heat for 4 to 6 hours.

Family of vegetarians loved it! Didn't use Worcestershire sauce - not vegetarian. Didn't use (didn't have) nutritional yeast and liquid smoke. Thanks - this is a keeper!
