01 Apr

Brought to us by the Brazelton Family

Vegetable-oil cooking spray
1 red bell pepper, seeded and diced
1 small eggplant, cubed
1 medium onion, peeled and cut into eighths
2 medium zucchini, cubed
1/2 teaspoon(s) salt
1 tablespoon(s) olive oil
2 clove(s) garlic, minced
1 pound(s) button mushrooms, cleaned and quartered
1 bay leaf
1 teaspoon(s) chili powder dried chipotle pepper, stemmed and diced
1 can(s) (19-ounce) white cannellini beans, rinsed and drained
1 can(s) (14 1/2-ounce ) low-sodium vegetable broth
1 can(s) (14 1/2-ounce ) low-sodium diced tomatoes
2 tablespoon(s) chopped fresh parsley leaves

Roast the vegetables: Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Coat a large baking sheet with cooking spray. In a medium bowl, combine bell pepper, eggplant, onion, zucchini, and salt with olive oil. Arrange the vegetables in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Roast the vegetables, turning occasionally, until just softened — 25 to 30 minutes.
Make the chili: In a large Dutch oven, add oil and heat over medium-high heat. Once oil is hot but not smoking, add garlic and mushrooms. Sauté until mushrooms soften — about 5 minutes. Add bay leaf, chili powder, chipotle pepper, beans, broth, tomatoes, and roasted vegetables. Bring to a boil and reduce heat to low. Simmer uncovered for 20 minutes.
Stir in parsley and serve hot.
