Meat-Lovers' Vegetarian Chili Recipe

Recipesfull introduces to you: Chili Recipes. (Meat-Lovers' Vegetarian Chili Recipe). This is a thick, hearty vegetarian chili that is a hit at parties even among die-hard meat eaters. The TVP gives it the texture of ground beef, and the chiles give it a nice depth of flavor. Cook it in the slow cooker or on the stovetop. This recipe really benefits from using the best quality ingredients you can find. Also, I find this tastes best after sitting in the fridge overnight and reheating the next day. Serve with grated cheese on top.
