Meatless Monday: Rock and a Hard Place Three Bean Chili

Three Bean Chili

Rock and a Hard Place Three Bean Chili is for those days when you feel like nothing you do is right.

When the world is clamoring at you, jabbering at you, demanding, asking, shouting at you.

When all you want to do is hide out under the porch with the cat until moonrise. Not go into town for fresh anything.

With this recipe you can sneak back into your kitchen, can-opener in hand, and conjure up dinner without having to 1) speak to anyone who doesn’t get that sometimes you just want to hide and 2) dirty many dishes (because that could make you cry).

There are days like that. But they are not who you are.

They are just bad days.

You can use whatever combination of beans you have on hand for this recipe. You can also add chopped peppers or other vegetables and simmer gently until they are tender but not overcooked. If you are planning to freeze the chili, do not add the additional vegetables or they will get mushy when thawed.
