Hello,

Are the canned tomatoes a mistake? They are in the list of ingredients but not the instructions 🤔

Thank you 🙂

Really good on a snowy day!
I used your recipe to make dry black beans in the instant pot, which gave .me an hour to go shovel. I also made your DIY Chili seasoning before I went out.
When u came back, it was pretty easy to put this chili together... the only hard part was WAITING! But it wax Wirth the wait!
My hubby and I both give it 5 stars!
Will be making this again!

THANK YOU KRISTEN! 😊

In reply to Marsha Godfrey. Hi Marsha. The bitterness most likely would have been from the crushed tomatoes or the brand of chili powder. I would suggest reheating with 1-2 tablespoons of brown sugar to see if that helps.

tried this today. I followed recipe exactly except for the tomatoes. I did not have diced tomatoes, and I used crushed tomatoes. The chili is so bitter it is barely edible! What's your best guess for where I went wrong?
Is there a standard solution for bitterness in recipes

I am an unapologetic meatitarian, my mother is a "vegetarian in training". I found this after finding your chili spice mix and thought: Why not. If nothing else, she'll like it.
I used the full spice mix instead of the amount listed, and added a bunch of sliced mushrooms, plus Better than Buoillon's Vegetation No Chicken chicken base for the chicken stock. and threw it all into a slow cooker.
A bit sweet, with a hint of spicy. Excellent isn't high enough to describe this.

In reply to Anne Merrin. Hi Anne! To prepare in the slow cooker, cook on high for 3-4 hours or low for 5-6 hours. It should turn out perfectly! Enjoy!

How would you adapt for the slow-cooker? Would the sweet potato and quinoa get too mushy?

Do you cook the quinoa before adding to the chili? Thanks!

In reply to Amanda. Hi Amanda! I would saute with the onions and garlic and then proceed with the recipe. Enjoy!

Hi! I’d like to add meat (perhaps bison or lean beef). When would you recommend adding?
