Difficulty: Easy-Medium
Serves 4
The weather is cooling down and my meal cravings have been leaning towards the more hearty side. The other day I kinda felt like chili but I also kinda felt like a mushroom so I thought I’d throw the two together. You could even do mini version of this with smaller mushrooms for a party platter! Yeah, that’d be super cute.
Ingredients
- 4 large mushrooms, washed
- 1 brown onion, finely chopped
- 1 can black beans, drained
- 1/2 cup corn kernels
- 1 red capsicum, chopped
- 1 can diced tomatoes
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons paprika
- 2 tablespoons cayenne
- 4 tablespoons vegan sour cream (optional)
- Chives to garnish
Method
- Remove the stalks from the mushrooms and set aside.
- In a fry pan, sautee the onion for a few minutes before adding the black beans and vegetables.
- Add the tinned tomatoes, brown sugar and spices. Combine well and cook for 8-10 minutes.
- If the mixture becomes too thick, add some water until you get the desired consistency.
- In the meantime, grill the mushroom for about 5 minutes.
- Fill each mushroom with chilli mixture and top with the vegan sour cream and chives.
Yum! Like a less carby baked potato!
Oh totally! And you could pop the chili in a tater if you wanted to 😉
Where do you buy your canned black beans from? I can never find them!
Hi Hannah!
If you can’t find canned you can always soak and boil before use. I get mine from health food stores, most in my area have them!
