Vegetarian Cashew Chili For Camping Recipes

Steps:

• Chop the celery, onions, and bell pepper. Sauté them in olive oil until tender, about 10 minutes.
• Add tomatoes(with juice) and beans(with juices) and all spices. Cover and simmer for 5-10 minutes, until pleased with thickness. Add vinegar and cashews.
• Taste and adjust seasonings, remove bay leaf, and serve. Enjoy!

Steps:

• In a soup pot, heat the oil. Add onions, garlic and bay leaf and saute for about 3 minutes. Add the green peppers and celery and cook until the vegetables are tender but still crisp, approximately 3-5 minutes.
• Melt in the butter, then add spices, herbs, pepper, and salt. Saute for 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently so nothing burns.
• Add quart of tomatoes plus juice and beans to the mixture and simmer for about 15 minutes for flavor to blend.
• Toast cashews in a 350 oven or toaster oven for about 20 minutes, or until lightly browned. Add toasted cashews and vinegar. Simmer for another 15 minutes and serve.
• It's even better the second day.
