INGREDIENTS
1 cup Kidney Beans
1/2 cup cooked Brown Lentils
1/2 cup Edamame
1 cup Diced Tomatoes
1 medium Red Bell Pepper
1 medium Yellow Onion
2 cloves Garlic
1 tbsp Olive Oil
1 cup Vegetable Broth
1 tsp Chili Powder
1 tsp Ground Cumin
1 pinch Salt
PREPARATION
Rinse and drain the kidney beans, and if using canned, ensure they are well-rinsed.
In a medium pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped yellow onion and minced garlic, sautéing until the onion is softened and translucent.
Add the diced red bell pepper and cook for an additional 3 minutes until slightly tender.
Stir in the chili powder and ground cumin, allowing the spices to bloom and coat the vegetables.
Add the diced tomatoes and vegetable broth, stirring well to combine with the spices and vegetables.
Mix in the kidney beans, cooked lentils, and edamame. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
Lower the heat and let the chili simmer for 15-20 minutes to meld the flavors together. Add a pinch of salt and adjust seasoning as needed.
Serve hot, and enjoy this hearty bowl of protein-rich, vegetable-packed chili on its own or with a side of your favorite whole grain.
