Vegan Chunky Chili image

If you are entertaining mixed palates, this meal will satisfy all tastes. A from-scratch chili that uses many different vegetables as well as beans, lentils and tofu to provide that 'full' feeling that chili with meat offers. Add fresh parsley and basil to taste, if desired. I prefer to let the chili sit overnight in the refrigerator before serving.

This chili is a bit too spicy for me, but I still enjoyed it. I would probably use less chili powder next time.
