This is a tasty recipe for a yellow and white bean chili.

 

6 Servings

 

1 cup choped onion

1 cup thinly sliced leek (white part only)

1 cup chopped yellow bell peppers

1 jalapeno chili, finely chopped

2 teaspoons minced garlic

2 teaspoons cumin seeds

1-2 tablespoons olive oil

1 medium yellow summer squash, cubed

2 small red potatoes, peeled, cubed

1 1/2 cups cooked, dried garbanzo beans

1 1/2 cups cooked, dried soybeans

1 can (14 1/2 ounces) reduced-sodium vegetable broth

1/2 cup dry white wine

1 teaspoon dried oregano leaves

1/2 teaspoon ground coriander

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1 teaspoon chili powder

1 bay leaf

Salt and pepper, to taste

1 small tomato, finelychopped

2 green onions and tops, thinly sliced

3 tablespoons finely chopped cilantro
