- 1 lb cabbage, coarsely chopped (half a large)
- 1 lb green beans, trimmed
- 2 medium onions, coarsely chopped
- salt & freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- 5 large garlic cloves, minced

directions
- In a 12-inch sauté pan, heat oil over medium high.
- Add cabbage, beans, and onions.
- Season with salt and pepper. Sauté about 10 minutes, or until starting to brown.
- Stir in garlic and seasonings and cook 1 minute.
- Add vinegar and wine, boil down as you scrape up any brown glaze on the bottom of the pan.
- When no moisture is left, stir in the tomatoes and their juice. Bring to a gentle simmer, cover, and cook 10 minutes (check for sticking), or until beans are tender.
- Uncover and cook off excess liquid (stirring to protect from burning) until chili is thick and rich tasting.
- Season to taste.
- Serve hot, at room temperature, or reheated.
- A green salad is a good partner.

A different and delicious chili! My changes were to use frozen green beans which I added in the last 10 minutes(fresh beans are really more of a spring veggie!), white wine (because my dad bought the wrong kind) and I added about a cup of vegan burger crumbles for extra protein and chewiness. The crumbles were great in it, but I think the chili would be just as good without. However my dad really liked it and usually it's tricky to make him eat cabbage! Next time I'll try the red wine, but I'm impressed by how well this turned out anyway! Thanks Engrossed!

I'm not as active here anymore, but you can find me playing at the new recipezazz.com. I'm not a great photographer, but I love to take food photos with Freddy Cat to bring a smile to people's day. I love to cook and share good food with other people. I have a very large collection of cookbooks. I used to enjoy being able to look up recipes on Zaar by ingredients I had on hand. I miss the Zaar tag game community. Everyone was so nice, and it was super fun. Ah, the good ol' days.
