Three-Bean Chili with Vegetables

Chipotle chiles add a subtle smokiness and a touch of spicy heat to this chili. We also love the flavor from the three types of beans. Cook this hearty, kid-friendly dish up to two days ahead. Thin it with a little water when reheating, if necessary.

Cooking Light OCTOBER 2006

Yield: 16 servings (serving size: 1 1/4 cups chili, 1 tablespoon cilantro, 1 tablespoon cheese, and 1 tablespoon sour cream)
