Ingredients

The following ingredients have 6 Servings
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 cup onion (, diced that equals about 1 to 1 1/2 cup)
  • 12 ounce meatless ground beef (, package about 12 ounces)
  • 12 ounce meatless Italian sausage links (, package about 12 ounces)
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 2 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon parsley
  • 1 teaspoon oregano
  • 29 ounces tomatoes (2 cans, about 14 1/2 ounces each, diced)
  • 6 ounce tomato paste (, 1 can)
  • 8 ounces beer (3/4 of a can of beer)
  • 28 ounces black beans (about 2 cans 14 ounces each)

Instruction

  • Slice the 'sausage' into chunks, set aside.  There is probably a clear covering over the sausage.  Remove that first then carefully slice.
  • In a large skillet, heat oil.
  • Add onion and 'sausage' and sauté for about 10 minutes.
  • Add the 'beef' and saute about 5 more minutes.
  • Add the cumin, chili powder, garlic powder.
  • Stir and cook 2 minutes.
  • Add the tomatoes, tomato paste, parsley, oregano, beer, salt and pepper.
  • Bring to a boil and then turn down to simmer.
  • Cook about 30 minutes until chili is a bit thicker.
  • At this point you can freeze for the future. Freeze without the beans.
  • To carry on - add the beans and heat through.
  • Ready to eat and relax.
