Vegetarian Chili

What is a spectacular vegetarian chili recipe?

I think that the key to a great chili is to mix fresh ingredients right when serving. , and to keep it simple. For example..

Make a chili base with 28oz crushed tomatoes, 14oz light red kidney beans, 14oz red beans, 2 tablespoons of chili powder, 2 teaspoons of cumin, a teaspoon of cayenne pepper, 4-5 cloves of minced garlic and a big chopped green pepper.. throw in a cup of cabernet for good measure and cook it of a bit.

When you serve it, fill the bowls 1/3 full of chili and top it with an equal portion of diced white onion, chopped cilantro and grated extra sharp cheddar cheese, if you eat cheese. The mixture of cold/hot fresh/cooked is great.
