As a professional cook, I often try to come up with different versions of traditional dishes. Take chili, for example. I have prepared all kinds of meat chilis along with bean and poultry chilis, and sometimes I want the simple, clean taste of this unembellished, yet very tasty vegetarian chili.
When it’s cold outside and you want something that will warm you up and offer comfort to your day, this chili is it. No meat—just beans, onions, this delectable combination of spices, and some tomatoes are all you need.
