Ingredients | Awesome Blossom Petals Chilis Vegan

3 tablespoons olive oil

1 large onion, chopped

1 green bell pepper, chopped

1 red bell pepper, chopped

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 (19 ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained

2 (28 ounce) cans diced tomatoes

2 cups water

1 (12 ounce) can whole kernel corn, drained

¼ cup dry red lentils

¼ cup uncooked quinoa

¼ cup chili powder

¼ cup brown sugar

1 tablespoon smoked paprika

1 teaspoon kosher salt

1 teaspoon ground turmeric

1 teaspoon dried oregano

½ teaspoon ground cumin

½ teaspoon red pepper flakes

½ teaspoon cracked black pepper

3 teaspoons cornstarch

3 tablespoons water, or more as needed

Directions

Heat oil in a medium Dutch oven over medium heat; stir in onion, green and red bell peppers, and garlic. Cook and stir until vegetables have softened, about 5 minutes.

Mash 1/2 of the black beans in a small bowl. Transfer to the Dutch oven with the remaining whole black beans. Add diced tomatoes, 2 cups water, corn, lentils, quinoa, chili powder, brown sugar, paprika, salt, turmeric, oregano, cumin, red pepper flakes, and black pepper; stir to combine. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 2 hours.

Make a slurry by mixing cornstarch with 3 tablespoons water until completely dissolved, adding more water if necessary. Stir slurry into the chili and simmer until thickened, about 15 minutes. Mash chili with a potato masher to desired consistency.
