Ingredients
Instructions
-
In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.
-
Add the minced garlic, diced bell peppers, and carrots to the pot. Cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are slightly tender.
-
Sprinkle the chili powder, cinnamon, cumin, allspice, and cayenne pepper over the vegetables. Stir well to coat the vegetables with the spices.
-
Pour in the drained and rinsed kidney beans and black beans, along with the diced tomatoes and vegetable broth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
-
Bring the chili to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low. Cover the pot and let the chili cook for about 30-40 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the flavors have melded together and the vegetables are tender.
-
Taste the chili and adjust the seasonings if needed. If you prefer a thicker consistency, you can let the chili simmer uncovered for a little longer.
-
To serve, ladle the Vegetarian Cincinnati Style Chili over a bed of cooked spaghetti. Top with shredded cheddar cheese and chopped onions for an extra burst of flavor and texture.
