This is the best vegetarian chili recipe to hit the internet. It was inspired by my California Style Wet Burritos Recipe which is a follower favorite. With flavors from around the world, a bowl full of this vegetarian chili is hearty and satisfying. If there is one thing I love it’s the blend of Mexican, Indian, and Italian flavors. Make this recipe for lunch or dinner and serve it with corn tortilla chips or Frito Lays. Perfect for gatherings or a quiet night in with the family.
