Ellie's Black Bean Chili
"Don't tell anyone, but I stole this recipe from the restaurant I used to work at. And now you all get to share in it! This vegetarian chili has amazing flavor, and we always ran out early in the day at the restaurant. It is a bit spicy, but just take out some of the jalapeno to get rid of the spice. Watch out, it makes a lot!"

Rating these high because of the combo of spices. I did use my crockpot to cook these. I cooked them all day with some ham hocks and the last two hours of cooking added the sauted vegies and spices. By the time I was ready to eat them i had no room for the tomatoes. But they were delicious without them. Thank you for this wonderful combination of spices that goes great with the beans. I do have alot of leftovers so i may still add the tomatoes : )

I'm a college student in California, and I love to cook for my husband. My alltime favorite cookbook is the Food & Wine 2005 cookbook. It has the best variety of unique gourmet recipes I have found so far. It also tells you which ones are the best, so you'll try those first!
