VEGETABLE CHILI

From Bon Appétit: "Even better over rice. Top it with sour cream and grated cheddar cheese." (I omit the toppings).

INGREDIENTS:
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 large onion, coarsely chopped
6 large garlic cloves, chopped (I crush them first)
3 14 1/2-ounce cans diced tomatoes in juice
1 4-ounce can diced mild green chilies
3 tablespoons chili powder
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 tablespoon dried oregano
2 15- to 16-ounce cans kidney beans, drained (I use pinto beans)
2 green bell peppers, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 10-ounce package frozen corn kernels (I use 1- 15 oz can, unsweetened and unsalted)

DIRECTIONS:
Heat oil in heavy large pot over medium-high heat. Add onion and garlic; sauté 5 minutes. Add tomatoes with juices, green chilies, chili powder, cumin and oregano. Cook 10 minutes to blend flavors. Add beans, bell peppers and corn. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until chili is thick, stirring occasionally, about 35 minutes ( I cook it about 1 hour). Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Serves 6.

ya know what else would be good with chili.. those cheese biscuits that Red Lobster makes.
 
Cheese Biscuits like Red Lobster's

1 cup milk
1/3 cup mayo
1 tablespoon sugar or 3 pkgs Splenda
2 cups flour
1/4 cup american cheese, grated
melted margarine or butter
garlic powder
american cheese food

Combine milk, mayo, sugar and flour. Beat with mixer at high speed, not
quite 1 minute until smooth and completely combined. Remove beaters. Use rubber spatula to streak the dough with 1/4 cup cheese food. Drop batter equally between 10 paper-lined muffin wells. Drizzle top of each with 1 teaspoon melted margarine and dust each with a little garlic powder plus 1 scant teaspoon additional cheese food.

Bake at 350° ..25 to 30 minutes or until golden brown and tripled in size. Cool in pan on racks for 30 minutes.
 
I think that was a typo on my part.. it's like velveeta, etc.. but I made these (been awhile) and took to a family thing.. but used just shredded american cheese or cheddar.. I love velveeta..but don't use it much because of the calories.
 
LOL! I like just melted velveeta on broccoli...and it makes a great chicken/broccoli/rice casserole!
 
would also be good on garlic bread!

unfortunately, (even though I love alllllllllllllllllllllllll kinds of cheese) it makes one dang good grilled cheese.
