I made Vegetarian Chili and corn bread (for my family) last Saturday dinner.
Published by William and Morrow, 1993.
At first, I was overwhelmed by the list of ingredients! I skipped some of the veggies as I did not have them.
Here are the list of ingredients I used (I marked my changes in pink):
1 Tablespoon (instead of Tablespoons) canola oil
1 1/2 cups chopped yellow onions
1 cup chopped red bell peppers
2 tablespoons minced garlic
1 medium zucchini, stem ends trimmed and cut into small dice
2 tablespoons chili powder
1 tablespooon ground cumin
1 1/4 teaspoons salt
4 large tomatoes, peeled, seeded and chopped
3 cups cooked black beans, or canned beans, rinsed and drained
1 (15-ounce) can tomato sauce (I used tomato paste + water)
1 cup vegetable stock, or water
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro leaves
I skipped the following (I made corn bread instead):
Cooked brown rice, accompaniment
Sour cream or strained plain yogurt, garnish
Diced avocado, garnish
Essence, recipe follows, garnish
Chopped green onions, garnish

Put the tomatoes in the hot water.
See how easy it is!? This technique can be used for peaches.
Let's start cooking!
1. In a large pot, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the onions, bell peppers,
garlic, and peppers, and cook, stirring, until soft, about 3
minutes.
2. Add the zucchini, corn (if you are using), and mushrooms, and cook, stirring, until
soft and the vegetables give off their liquid and start to brown around
the edges, about 6 minutes.
4. Add the tomatoes and stir well.
5. Add the beans, tomato sauce, and
vegetable stock, stir well, and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to
medium-low and simmer, stirring occasionally, for about 20 minutes.
It was very good! Once you have the veggies chopped, it was fairly quick recipes. I did not simmer for 20 minutes in the step five as my husband and I were hungry. :-)

Remove from the heat and stir in the cilantro. Adjust the seasoning, to taste.
You may choose to follow the rest of the steps on the original recipe.
