OK, the photo may not be as appealing as I would have liked, but it was still pretty damn tasty.
The past few days have been snowy, sleety, rainy and just plain ... blah. For moi, this is perfect soup weather, and with the Superbowl just around the corner, I thought I'd brush up on my chili-making skills. I may not be the best chef, but do I put a lot of love into my dishes, including a vegetarian chocolate chili (which you can totally desecrate with meat if you're a carnivorous chili consumer).
INGREDIENTS:
- 2 medium dried chiles, split lengthwise and seeded
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon oregano
- 1/8 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 medium onions, chopped
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 3 zucchini or yellow squash, cubed
- 3/4 lb kale, chopped
- 1 teaspoon orange zest
- 1/8 teaspoon sugar
- 1 oz unsweetened chocolate, grated
- 1x 14.5 oz can whole tomatoes in juice
- 1 1/4 cups water
- 3x 15 oz cans of pinto beans, rinsed
