Slow Cooker Vegetarian Lentil Chili

I added corn from the cob & I used a chili seasoning packet. It was so good & I have leftovers for later meals as it was only made for me.

I made this and it turned out pretty good. My kids even liked it. The only things I did different were I omitted the 1/2 tsp of salt (just wanted to reduce the sodium), and I read reviews that said it was too spicy so I reduced the chili powder down to just 1/2 a tbsp instead of a whole tbsp. I think next time, I will try the whole amount of chili powder and see how it tastes.

Wayyy too spicy

Loved this recipe!!! Sautéed onions before adding, used only 1/8 tsp cayenne pepper, added half the lentils, only 3 cups of vegetable broth, and finally added sauteed Beyond Beef at the very end.

I made it exactly as the recipe indicated. This was a great week night meal. The spice blend was great. Next time I will add more veggies like sweet potatoes.

So easy and tasty!

Fabulous!

I cooked it in the instant pot for 30 minutes, then natural release for 15, and really liked how it came out.

Super easy, has a little bit of a kick. Served with a spoon of neutral yoghurt, slided avocado and a slice of bread to dip in the chili.

Very satisfying vegetarian chili. Served with sour cream, cheddar cheese, and avocado. Also added a bell pepper to the crock pot because I had an extra one handy.

Quite hearty and simple to make! I added 2 carrots and a cup of frozen corn. Had it cooking for 9 hours while we went skiing - very nice meal to come home to! Now it definitely tastes like lentils, and I’m not the biggest fan of lentils, but add in cheese and sour cream and you can’t tell! My husband thinks it’s better the next day.

Really great lentil chilli recipe. Would make the following notes for next time: -pressure cook manually on highest pressure setting for 10 min, then let naturally release for 10 min before quick releasing -if using indian red chilli powder use 1/2 tbsp as it’s much spicier than regular chilli powder -i used TJs hearty veg broth and the base was very tasty, but I didn’t use the whole box to keep the chilli thicker—I recommend 3 cups, then adding more and pressure cooking on high again for another 5 min if needed to dilute (what I did) -I used about 52 g of double concentrated tomato paste which is about 1.8 oz instead of 6 oz as recommended in recipe -accidentally added 1/2 tsp garlic powder instead of 1/4 but it was still good lol -i think the smoked paprika is a must in this one—don’t skip this!!

Really tasty. I used green lentils and as I didnt soak I boiled on them hob for 10 or so minutes in the stock whilst pre-heating the rest of the ingredients in the slow cooker. Note it was on for longer than 8 hours and I didnt add salt as this can make the lentils and beans harden but added when eating. Will definitely make again. Vegetarian daughter said she prefers my own recipe but I really liked it as did hubby and son

My lentils never became tender---may need to be boiled for 20 minutes with broth early in the cooking process. Prepping vegetables took me a long time. Recipe has really great flavor!

Added more veggies and swapped out the coconut oil

Don't have slow cooker, came out well with stock pot (brought to boil then turned down to simmer for an hour or so). Added some chopped jalapeños. edit: surprisingly good with a little cottage cheese mixed in after reheating.

I wasn’t sure about this when it was cooking as it seemed quite watery and not very exciting but it tasted really good. Will definitely make again.

Super simple and very good. I've never really done anything with lentils before but I didn't have any meat on hand. I think I'll start making more lentil recipes as this was a good introduction to them.

Needs to be cooked on the low level for longer in the crock pot

Very easy to make. Fast preparation then leave it in the slow cooker. The ingredients are versatile - no need to stick to the same pulses so long as you use the same quantity. The quantity of hot chilli powder means it was nicely spiced and a large dollop of yoghurt complimented the dish perfectly. Another one that will be made again.

This recipe is great, I made it in the pressure cooker instead of in the slow cooker and it came out perfect. My daughter loved it and she is normally very picky. It has a mild kick so it's not to spicy.
