vegetarian taco chili

Submitted by Kaysma

"a hearty vegetarian meal that will fool any meat eaters into thinking it's full of beef (make it without telling them - i promise they will NEVER know!). i developed this recipe because i love tacos AND i love chili - but i had to find a lower fat version to make since starting weight watchers. a one cup serving of this will fill you up for only 3 points."

LOVE IT! I know this is an old recipe, but it is great! It is hard to find a flavorful chili with this little ingredients. It is easy to make, and it is sooooo thick and chunky, not watered down at all!! Thank you for a great recipe. All I can say it is a sweeter recipe with not much spice, so if you want more spice I would suggest adding chili pepper. But I enjoyed it the way it is!
