Vegetarian Chili

Came home from a long day of traveling to my wonderful sous chef and a bowl of warm chili. This was tasty - not too spicy either.


Ingredients
1 package Morning Star crumbles
1/2 can tomato paste (or 1 small can)
1 can tomato sauce (plain or spanish style)
1/2 Italian pepper (diced)
1/2 can kidney beans (or 1 small can)
1/2 can black beans (or 1 small can)
1/2 large onion, diced
1 garlic clove, diced
1 tbsp chili powder
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
1 tsp paprika
1/2 bottled beer
1 tbsp butter
salt and pepper to taste

Directions
Sauteed onion and garlic and peppers in butter for 5 minutes or until onion is cooked. Add crumbles. Then add beans and sauce and add herbs. Cook for 10 minutes. Slowly add beer. Pour some in every 5 minutes until done. Let simmer on low for an hour. (Note: my sous chef used the small Goya cans and he simmered his for 3 hours). Serve with sour cream.
