Best Vegetarian Chili

 

It's officially comfort food season! This will always be my weakness.  I LOVE comfort food!  Unfortunately, most comfort foods aren't exactly the most friendly on your waistline.  BUT, good news for you! I am going to start posting my comfort foods made skinny!  Today's lunch:

Inferno Tips:
  • Add ground 1.5 pounds ground turkey or chicken for more protein!
