Homemade Vegetarian Chilli

This month I have decided to go Veggie except for fish. 

I find I make lots of main meals that revolve around meat. So I have decided to only prepare fish and vegetarian dishes this month to force myself to branch out and try new recipes rather than falling back on meat dishes all of the time. Here is a lovely Vegetarian Chilli full of lovely protein! Healthy and yummy. I'll call it a win!


I have used this recipe as a base for my vegetarian chilli a couple of times as a very rough guide and then just chucked in whatever veggies I've got in the kitchen. As long as you get your beans in you should be getting a lovely protein boost. See recipe here: http://allrecipes.co.uk/recipe/1725/insanely-easy-vegetarian-chilli.aspx

                 
My recipe adaptations and notes:

Sometimes I use blackened beans as well as kidney beans or even instead. I love including courgette because it just melts in your mouth! Carrots are lovely for a crunch. So it broccoli (but I'd put broccoli in just about anything). My partner doesn't like mushrooms but they are a lovely addition that I highly recommend.

Serving suggestions
Rice is the obvious (preferably brown).



Star choice = Sweet potato (but you know how I feel about sweet potato, it's all in the name!)


Or have the leftovers on toast for a delicious lunch!

Tip: Serve with greek yogurt if you want it cooling down. This can be on the side or mixed in.


Tip: You can make this with meat really easily if you like. And if you are searching veggie chilli recipes because you don't like red meat then why not try it with bacon? Yum!
