Homemade chili always fills your home with the welcome aroma of spices, tomatoes, and beans simmering in the kitchen. Perfect during cool, crisp weather, served before football games, and after you finish raking those leaves.
Prep Time: 1 hour, Serves 6

1/2 cup Organic olive Oil
2 Tbsp. cumin
2-3 Tbsp. each basil, oregano and thyme
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp. cayenne pepper
1 1/2 Tbsp. paprika
1 tsp. salt

1 cup frozen corn, thawed
1 cup carrots, peeled and chopped
1 1/2 cups organic green bell pepper

3 cups Crushed Tomatoes with Basil
1/3 cup finely chopped chili peppers
1 cup textured vegetable protein (TVP) granules (optional)
Chopped green onions, chopped cilantro, Henry's Market Shredded Cheddar Cheese and sour cream (optional)

Prepare TVP. Mix 1 cup dry TVP with 1 cup boiling water. Let sit for 5 minutes. Makes 2 cups reconstituted.

In a large pot, saute the cumin, basil, oregano, thyme, garlic, cayenne pepper, paprika, salt, onions, zucchinis, corn, carrots, peppers, and garlic in the olive oil until vegetables are tender.
