DIRECTIONS ------------------------------------------------------------
Sort and rinse beans, then soak overnight in water.
Drain beans and place in crockpot. Add vegetable juice, wine, soy
sauce, and apple or pineapple juice. Cover with vegetable stock or
water; the amount added depends on whether you prefer a soup (more
liquid) or a stew (less). The juice adds just a tad of sweetness and
the soy sauce adds depth and the tang of salt.
Cook at high for 2 hours. Add vegetables, herbs, and spices, and cook
for 5-6 hours at low until carrots and parsnips are tender. When
tender, add rice or pasta and cook for one additional hour.
NOTES: For beans use 3 or 4 kinds, such as: black, red kidney, pinto,
baby lima, lentil, and green and/or yellow split peas.

Rob's Veggie Chili
===========================
olive oil
1-2 large yellow onions, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 red pepper, diced fairly large
1 green pepper, diced fairly large
2 28-oz. cans crushed tomatoes
1 T. cumin
1 tsp. cayenne (or to your taste)
1 package frozen corn
2 cans black beans (or any other kind of beans
you like - chickpeas work well too)
1-1.5 C. picante sauce (Shotgun Willie's green
sauce -- very hot -- works well)
salt to taste
grated cheddar, if desired
cashew nuts, if desired
Saute onions in the olive oil. (**I used cooking wine instead to
cut out the fat). Add garlic a bit later.
After onion and garlic are have turned golden brown,
add cumin, cayenne, and whatever other spices you might
like. Fry for a couple of minutes.

Next, add the peppers, saute them for a few minutes.
Put the crushed tomatoes, corn, beans and picante sauce
into the crock pot, and add the onion mixture.
Cook on low about 10 hours.
Serve with grated cheddar and cashew nuts, if desired.
NOTE: I didn't have room in my crockpot for 2 cans of crushed
tomatoes, and I had to cut back a little on the corn too,
so you will have to vary the sizes above depending on the size
of your crockpot.
