  • Pour in the chopped tomatoes, kidney beans, black beans, and vegetable broth.
  • Add the tomato paste and stir to combine all ingredients well.

Notes

To enhance the flavor, consider adding a pinch of cayenne pepper for extra heat or a dash of lime juice for acidity. If you prefer a thicker chili, you can mash some of the beans with a fork or potato masher while cooking. This dish pairs well with rice, bread, or tortilla chips for a complete meal.
