When I was young my mother used to put beans into stews & soups without soaking them. They were always hard & gross. Fast forward to now where I’ve been a vegetarian for 5 years & finally started adding beans to my diet. This is a black bean chili & was absolutely delicious which is doubly funny as I never liked chili before. #vegetarian #meatless #beans #food #greatfood #diet #noanimalshurt #yummy #cooking #crockpot #Chili #veggies
