Vegetarian Chili sin Carne
This is the ¨Classic Chili Recipe¨ ¨con mucho historia¨. First its the same recipe that my mother prepared for me and my sister 40 years ago, of course mom made it with a pound of ground beef. Second, its the first dish I began cooking on a regular basis, and became a car camping staple. Third, as an outdoor leader with SDSU Aztec Adventures I added this chili to our trip menu, satisfying the participants, and impressing the program director as well. And forth, I introduced this recipe at Norton Rat's Tavern in Cusco, Peru where some of my patrons were eating this chili twice a day. More recently the SIN CARNE version has been a big hit at potlucks. Finally, after all these years, here is my mom's classic chili recipe made vegetarian. Vegetarian Chili sin Carne is the original recipe made without meat, nothing more has been added. Enjoy!!
