The World in Chili

Black Bean Chili

For some people, beans are a crucial ingredient of chili, where others scorn them completely. If you’re hoping to make a vegetarian chili, there’s really no other option but to put the focus completely on beans, and embrace the sheer variety of their textures and flavors. There are so many different types of beans that are popular around the United States. Black bean chili is a typical vegetarian alternative to meat-based chilis, and can be made with either a single type of bean, or a huge variety — although black or kidney beans are the most popular. Most people who try this won’t miss the meat.
