Not Vegetarian

This is not vegetarian if one uses chicken broth. That is very , very wrong.

soooo delicious and hearty
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This will be the third fall and winter I make this chili. It's so delicious and always a big hit. I do usually add a little... more seasoning and a tad more cous cous, but in general it's a great vegetarian chili (as long as you use the vegetable broth). It's always nice to have a vegetarian meal that is actually hearty and filling like this one. For those complaining about the chicken broth....read the recipe and see that it calls for either, so it is up to the individual cook. I would definitely suggest this recipe...and it makes the house smell so great while it's cooking for hours :)Read more

Wonderful to come home to.
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This was very good. I cooked it about 4 hrs. on high and served it with shredded cheese with a dollop of sour cream on top... and some fresh sourdough bread I had made the day before. This is a keeper. Perfect for a cold fall evening and so easy to put together!Read more

Great Chili
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

Really good chili, I am cutting down on my cholesterol and I dont miss the meat! I did the same as another reviewer and... added bell peppers and jalapeno's. To respond to the offended reviewer, S from GA.......about the chicken broth.....this recipe clearly states veggie *OR* chicken broth so that it would not offend. Several Vegan recipes from online, to a few books that I own arent all animal free, not difficult to substitute though.Read more

Do not call it Vegetarian
Rated: 1 stars out of 5

How can you label it "Vegetarian Chili" if you have chicken broth??? As a vegetarian, I am offended.
