Need help with chili recipes...

[Guest guest]

HI! I'm not vegetarian or vegan, but I have found several of the

recipes posted helpful. I'm craving white chili and regular chili. I

recently learned that chili doesn't need meat. I need help learning

how to modify the recipes I have. I know I can leave the meat out. But

my problem is the other ingredients. In the past, I've used canned

kidney beans, tomatoes, great white northern beans, canned salsa, etc.

I am no longer able to use canned goods because of the way they are

processed. It doesn't matter if it's organic or not.

 

I do know what how to make fresh salsa and how to cook tomatoes down.

 

Can someone tell me how to make chili or white chili with dried beans?

How do I make it moist? Every time I cook with dried beans, everything

is dried out and tastes disgusting (even if I use the amount of water

called for).

 

Thanks in advance.
