Either there is a can of beans missing from this recipe or you should rename it “Two-Bean Chili”.

I just laughed so hard at the above comment, lol!!
No, but thanks for sharing this recipe! I will make it a lot seriously. I’m glad there’s not meat in it, that can get pricey. Thanks again!

Question: I’ve noticed chili recipes often call for frozen corn? Is is cool to use canned corn? Does it taste that much worse?

Canned corn would work also. The taste is a little different and it has more sodium unless you buy the no salt added version.
Yes, it should be “2 bean chili”

We usually use frozen corn because the sodium content is lower, but canned could also be used. Peggy

I really want to try this recipe at home. I like that there is no meat in this dish. I have a family of five, so buying meat can get expensive.
