Moroccan White Bean Chili image

I changed a few items from a "Cooking Light" recipe. It turned out a little less salty than I'm used to and a little lacking in body, but can be easily fixed by adding salt to my bowl and chunking up some mixed-grain hearty bread and mixing it in!

Number Of Ingredients 21

1 lb great northern bean, soaked for 24 hours
2 cups chopped onions, yellow and red
1 3/4 cups chopped celery
1 1/3 cups chopped carrots
2 tablespoons minced fresh garlic cloves
4 teaspoons ground cumin
4 teaspoons paprika
2 teaspoons ground ginger
1 teaspoon ground turmeric
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
3 cups water
8 tablespoons tomato paste
3 1/2 cups chopped fresh garden paste and eating tomatoes
4 cups water
1/4 cup chicken bouillon granule
1 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Stir in cumin and spice ingredients (through red pepper); cook 1 minute, stirring constantly.
  • Add the tomato paste and mix it inches
  • Quickly add the 3 cups water, the fresh diced tomatoes, and finally your soaked and drained bag of great northern beans.
  • Bring to a boil. Cover, reduce the heat, and simmer for 2 1/2 hours or until the beans are fork tender (or to your likeness)and the water has reduced to a nice stew-like texture.
