I remember when I prepared chili con carne for the very first time. It was several years earlier, as well as it was so simple! I fried some beef and after that ... I opened a pack of flavoring mix! I added it to the meat along with tomatoes, a splash of water and red kidney beans and done! Yes, even though I am embarrassed to admit to it currently, I have to confess that I utilized a shop-bought mix to make that recipe in the past. Yet there is something much more awkward. When that prepared to prepare package wasn't readily available anymore, I stopped preparing chilli con carne. Why? I reflected then that making it from the ground up was too challenging and that I would certainly never ever accomplish the exact same taste.
When I finally got my nerve and also a excellent recipe, too! I recognized that thanks to cooking it myself, I understood just what was in it. And it tasted probably even much better than the one I used to make. No surprise then that it quickly turned into one of my family members's preferred meals.
When my daughter made a decision to become vegetarian, I understood I had to face an additional challenge. I needed to cook a dish that is based on meat but without the meat. As well as clearly, I had to make it taste like a real thing.

I must say, I didn't have a trouble with discovering a substitute for meat. Equally as it was in the instance of one more of my vegetarian/vegan transformations - Bolognese sauce, I utilized mushrooms. In my point of view, it is rather easy to attain a appearance and look of fried minced meat when you utilize very finely chopped champignons instead.
However, I still wanted to get the same taste of the Vegetarian Chili Con Carne as we knew from the Chili with meat. I determined to take the most convenient path and also use for my Veggie Chilli Con Carne the same items as well as flavors as I did for the standard Chilli. That also included my secret, wonderful ingredient - dark chocolate, which changes this scrumptious recipe to the next, genuine taste level.
