Carla's Vegetarian Chili

"This is my favorite recipe invention. It makes enough for a crowd, so if you are interested in making it for fewer than 10 people, I suggest cutting the recipe in half. It is also good if you just add all the ingredients into the slow cooker, minus the Tempeh. (brown and add the tempeh for the last 30 minutes of slow cooker cooking time). Simmer it all day, and not only will you have a great dinner ready when you get home from work, but your house will smell wonderful."
