Four-Bean Vegetarian Chili

Quick, easy - and it freezes well, so you don't have to eat the same meal for two weeks straight!

1 onion, chopped
2 T. olive oil
1 15 oz. can black beans
1 15 oz. can pinto beans
1 15 oz. can northern beans
1 15 oz. can kidney beans
1 16 oz. jar salsa
1 cup water
2 T. corn meal
3 T. chili powder
1 T. cumin

Saute the onion, then add everything else (drain and rinse the beans). Heat (with fairly constant stirring) until hot. DONE!

That's the recipe I was given...I like 'meaty' chilis, so I usually use less water, more corn meal, and a 'chunky' salsa, and have had people not realize that it's a vegetarian dish. Obviously, there are all sorts of other variations...add in fresh veggies - or even meat. Vary the brand, flavor or spiciness of the salsa. Change the type of beans. You get the picture - all sorts of fun stuff! Enjoy!
