This is THE best chili recipe I’ve ever tasted! You won’t miss the meat a bit.
I made this recipe using the cookbook. It calls for 1/4 cup of sea salt, not 1/4 tsp. Watch out!!
Extremely good article. I am a hypnotherapist and agree wholeheartedly with your article
I recently bought the Ultra-Metabolism Cookbook and for one of my first recipes I tried the Three Bean Vegetarian Chili. There is a major error in editing of this recipe. The last item in the recipe ingredients is written as 1/4 cup kosher salt, I questioned this but just reduced it more than half way and needless to say this was a great error my first try in your book was a big failure. This book was copyright in 2007 and was purchased at Barnes & Noble.
Thank you for that feedback karen. We apologize for error and are appreciative of your time.
