Make Vegetarian Chili with Cornbread Dumplings
by Adrianna Adarme on Oct 29, 2015
Im currently struggling with carpal tunnel, which is hard because typing is, well, a big part of my job. Luckily its my left hand so cutting and stirring isnt unbearable. Because of my strange injury--which hopefully will go away sooncoupled with the fact that chili truly is what I love to eat regularly during fall, I bring you this fall! I love chili of all kinds, but the one I love to make at most at home has no meat in it and is strictly vegetarian. It makes for a very light-feeling chili that wont way you down, all the while being super hearty and filling.
I wanted it to be a cross between a savory cobbler and dumplings, so I added a bit of cornbread dumpling dough on top. Another option is to completely skip the dumplings and just make the chiliits just as good!
Another thing that I love about this dish is that its FAST. Very fast. Its the type of dish you make on a weeknight when food has to hit bowls in 30 minutes flat. Im usually not the speediest of cooks but I love to make a big batch of this and reheat it throughout the week.
