"I know the title seems somewhat bizarre, but the slight "hint" of semi-sweet chocolate gives this vegetarian chili a real depth of flavor. It reminds me somewhat of a sweet, yet spicy mole sauce. This recipe was adapted from one I found in the "Moosewood Restaurant Celebrates" cookbook."

Ingredients: cinnamon, cumin...

"This is my version of mole sauce. It can hold its own against the mole at our great local Mexican restaurant. I usually double this recipe, but that's just me. The original recipe calls for 5 TBSP(yes, 5)of chili powder. I cut it in half, but you can take it from there. And don't judge the taste until you add the chocolate. It's just not..."

Ingredients: ground cumin, dried oregano...

"My mother-in-law came up with this recipe and I had to learn to make it because my husband LOVES it. She always makes it for potluck dinners because kids love it. We always add a little sugar to the sauce, but that's optional."

Ingredients: macaroni and cheese mix, mushroom and green pepper flavor spaghetti sauce...

"Unbelieveably easy, quick, healthy--and really good. From "20 Minutes to Dinner" by Bryanna Clark Grogan (The Book Publishing Co., 1997). Serves six as a main course with rice and salad, or more as a side."

"Believe it or not this is a recipe that I saw Paula Deen make on TV today. Just make sure you don't make the same mistake she did- the pumpkin seeds should be shelled (pepitas) before you sprinkle them as a garnish. This recipe is much easier to prepare than most mole recipes and is best served with tortillas and rice."

Ingredients: chipotle peppers, ground cumin...

"Courtesy of the Hershey's Kitchen, with a couple of my personal additions. Don't be scared by the cocoa powder! It adds a nice richness to the sandwiches - but it doesn't make them taste like chocolate :) Use the smaller amount of chili powder for less spicy "joes" :)"

Ingredients: cider vinegar, cocoa powder...

"I LOVE these things! These enchiladas are bathed in a sauce rich with chili powder, semisweet chocolate and a pinch of cinnamon. Please use corn tortillas and a "white" cheese for the recipe, as this sauce best complements them. Sliced avocado is a particularly tasty garnish for this dish."

Ingredients: cinnamon, ground cumin...

"The Gabby Gourmet (Fred Wix) says of his chili recipe: "If you’re a true chili afficionado, there will be no beans, but if you want beans, put 'em in! Just add the beans as a final ingredient." Posted for Zaar World Tour II and the Mexican Savory Chocolate Challenge."

"I'm posting my most used vegan recipe that I adore on its own, on nachos, on my husband's bald head, eating at work, just generally eating. My best bud maaweee loves it, my family loves it, all my mates love it, and it's so simple you will kick yourself on how simple it is. Put in veg you want to use from your fridge. To make it hotter,..."

"Mom made this recipe when I was a kid in the summer to use up those zucchini we always had too many of. I didn't like it then, but love it now! Omit the sausage and make it vegetarian!"

Ingredients: pepper, sweet Italian turkey sausage...

"From Ortega's Mexican Fiesta booklet found on an end-cap at the supermarket. If I use mild taco seasoning and mild salsa my husband will eat bowls and bowl of this and for a man that hates chili this is saying a lot. Feel free to spice it up! Garnish this hearty dish with crumbled taco shells, shredded cheddar cheese, cilantro and diced fresh..."

Ingredients: cinnamon, diced green chilies...
