To prepare a vegetarian chili2 beans and grains recipe, combine the following ingredients: 1 chopped onion, 2 chopped garlic cloves, 1/2 cup chopped tomatoes, 1 cup diced red bell pepper, and 1 teaspoon kosher salt. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the onions are translucent, about 15 minutes. Stir in the chili powder, cumin, paprika, oregano, salt and pepper. Bring to boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer, covered, for 30 to 40 minutes or until beans are heated through. Remove from heat and let stand 5 minutes before serving.
