Easy Vegan Tofu Chilli
Recipe by:
GUELPH CLOG GIRL
Instead of the usual chilli con carne, try this healthy tofu chilli that's chock-a-block with beans and veggies too. For even more veg, try adding a chopped red capsicum and some diced zucchini.

Altered ingredient amounts.
This is a delicious vegetarian recipe but uses way too much water. I used half the amount called for and then added uncooked elbow macaroni during the last 12 minutes of cooking.

Altered ingredient amounts.
This was the first tofu recipe I've ever tried and I loved it! I left out the corn and didn't add any extra water so that it was thick. I highly recommend this to anyone who is experimenting with tofu.

Used different ingredients.
I,too, had to add much more chilli powder and some chilli flakes because we love our chilli "Hot". I also added some sliced carrots, green peppers and red peppers to give an alround meal. I took the advice of others and only added enough water to barely cover. I also added some green lentils to give it substance. If some people find this chilli too watery, add some rice to it which will soak up the moisture. All in all it is a good chilli and easy and quick to make.

Used different ingredients.
I took tips from others, such as, adding more chilli powder, garlic, cumin and bell peppers. I didn't have any corn to add, and I added less water, it really didn't need too much. My chilli turned out fantastic!

Easy
This was quite soupy, and should be used, that way. I liked it enough to make again, as a soup. I may also experiment by omitting all that water.
