K8-EEEs Kickass Vegan Chili

[K8-EEE]

This was WOLFED DOWN not only by vegetarians but carnies as well, including my own dear hub, who likes pork AND beef in his chili thank you very much! He had two huge bowls of this stuff and was raving about it, there was NO LEFTOVERS AT ALL!

Sautee ONE LARGE CHOPPED ONION and FOUR CLOVES OF MINCED GARLIC in some VEGGIE OIL. Add ONE CHOPPED GREEN PEPPER.

When that is limp, not too brown or anything, stir in TWO CANS DICED TOMATOES, ONE CAN "EL PATO" JALAPENO SAUCE (GREEN LABEL) ONE CAN "EL PATO" TOMATO SAUCE (YELLOW LABEL,) 2 TABLESPOONS OF BROWN SUGAR, ONE TABLESPOON OF UNSWEETENED COCOA POWDER, 2 TEASPOONS CUMIN, HALF A CUP OF RED WINE. Simmer on low for 15 minutes or so then add ONE CAN OF DRAINED BLACK BEANS and ONE CAN OF DRAINED PINTO BEANS and ONE CAN OF WATER. I like to rinse canned beans, then tend to be salty, there is so much salt in everything else.

Bring the heat back up to a simmer; then add ONE PACKAGE OF YVES VEGGIE CUISINE "GOOD ROUND" MEXICAN STYLE. This is at Whole Foods where the tofu is in the fridge. You just sort of crumble it in there.

Then add TWO TABLESPOONS OF MASA (TORTILLA) FLOUR DISSOLVED IN 1/4 CUP WATER. Let this simmer about five more minutes and VOILA!! Great Halloween party food for a crowd.
