Vegetarian Chili

250 MIN | 6 SERVINGS

They'll never miss the meat! This veggie chili is so rich and thick and flavorful that you'll spend every bite pondering what's in it, and not a minute thinking about what's not. With black beans, white beans, hominy, tomatoes, chilies, corn and All-Bran® cereal for extra fiber, it packs a very powerful nutrition-and-flavor double punch.
