Tammy's Review: 

This is a delicious meatless chili, and very easy to make! It's colorful and flavorful, but not too heavy. This is one of the best vegetable chilis I've ever made! I love black beans, especially, and they go perfectly in this soup. I like mine topped with a little shredded cheese.

Perfect (healthful!) comfort food for a chilly day! My rating: 10/10

Delicious

This was a great meal for us. Healthy, flavorful, spicy and warm. We like our chili a little thicker, so I called this a soup and DH was none the wiser. Really inexpensive as well using dried beans.
