Vegetarian Three Bean Chili

So I'm putting this on here mostly so I won't forget how to make it as much as for anyone else, but just in case you're interested . . .

Ingredients:

15 oz can of Organic Tri-Bean Blend

8 oz can of Tomato Sauce

1 tbsp Hot Sauce

1 tbsp Chili Powder

1 tsp Black Pepper

1 tsp Garam Masala

1 tsp Minced Garlic

1 tsp Paprika

1/2 tsp Cilantro

1/2 tsp Oregano

1/2 tsp Parsley

1/2 tsp Salt


Instructions:

1. Mix the cans of beans and tomato sauce. I don't generally drain the beans, but if you want a thicker chili that's something you might consider.

2. Mix in the spices. I like my chili spicy, so take that into account if you want to lessen the amounts.

3. Microwave.

4. Enjoy. (Some Pepper Jack cheese sprinkled on top is always an added bonus.)

This is ridiculously easy to make if you live in a dormroom without a lot of space to store food or any way to cook it beyond the microwave. Makes a couple servings, so share with a friend or put some in the refrigerator for later.

Also, considering the absence of red meat, this is actually quite healthy! You still get your protein from the beans without any of the nasty other things red meat typically ensures.

Plus, you aren't killing animals! Yay!

And it cleans out your sinuses like a champ.

Eat your heart out, Martha Stewart.
