Greek Chili with Black Olives and Feta Cheese (modified)

[Guest guest]

This isn't vegan, and the original used meat, but I have such a weakness for

black olives and feta and Greek dishes, I was compelled to format and modify it.

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

1 teaspoon vegetable oil

2 teaspoons minced garlic

1 cup chopped onions

1 cup chopped zucchini

1 cup sliced mushrooms

1 cup chopped green bell peppers

1 1/2 cups chopped eggplant

8 ounces ground beef alternative

1 19 oz can tomatoes -- pureed

1 1/2 cups stock

1 cup canned red kidney beans -- drained

1 cup canned white kidney beans -- drained

1/3 cup sliced black olives

1 teaspoon chili powder

1 1/2 teaspoons dried basil

1 1/2 teaspoons dried oregano

2 ounces feta cheese -- crumbled

 

In a large nonstick saucepan sprayed with vegetable spray, heat oil over medium

heat. Add garlic, onions, zucchini, mushrooms, green peppers, and eggplant;

cook for 8 minutes or until softened. Add beef alternative and cook, stirring,

for 2 minutes. Drain any excess fat.

 

Mash 1/2 cup of the red kidney beans and 1/2 cup of the white kidney beans. Add

tomatoes, stock, mashed and whole beans, olives, chili powder, basil, and

oregano to saucepan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and siimmer, covered,

for 30 minutes. Sprinkle with cheese before serving.

 

Note - The original recipe called for lean lamb or ground beef. I think the

frozen (thawed) crumbles would work best.
