Thanks for the tip, JK. I didn't realize the Jiffy mix wasn't vegetarian. And I totally agree with both JK and Debra. There are plenty of meat substitutes out there that are cheap and easy. It's so convenient to be a vegetarian these days. Much simpler than it was 10 or 15 years ago.

While I'm all in favor of going vegetarian and our whole family is vegetarian, I can't really get behind a chili recipe that has navy beans or corn in it. Also, Morningstar farms makes a really awesome ground beef substitute. It's about $2.00 a bag or less and has a high protein content. Seriously, we serve our chili to meat-eating friends and they all ask for the recipe even though they know it doesn't contain any meat.

another great veggie meat substitute is seitan. it is SUPER cheap to make it yourself. fyi, the jiffy cornbread mix is not vegetarian. it has animal shortening in it.
