These cold, wintry nights call for action: a steaming hot bowl of gluten free veggie chili ought to do the trick!
I feel like every time I make veggie chili, I follow a different recipe, or adapt it to what I have on hand. I finally decided to record my notes on this version because it was so well loved by the vegetarians and meat lovers alike who shared it with us last night.
Of course, the only thing that could make an awesome bowl of veggie chili any better is a seriously awesome slice of homemade gluten free cornbread, so I did stack the deck a bit.
Seriously though, this recipe was truly delicious and universally loved. If you don’t care for some of the ingredients I used (I see you mushroom haters out there!) then just don’t use them.
Use what you have — what you like — but follow the seasoning and broth proportions and you’ll be good to go.
Another delicious option is to put your homemade veggie chili into an edible gluten free bread boule! It’s really hard to top this combo.

I hope this veggie chili warms you and your family from the inside out this winter.
