Veggie Beef Chili image

"Folks who like their chili hot really get a kick out of this zippy recipe," pens Amy Baxter of Bishop, California. "I serve steaming bowls of it with oven-fresh corn bread. It's chockfull of garden goodness-with two kinds of squash , tomatoes, green chilies, black beans, etc.-that you can leave out the meat altogether and not miss it a bit."
