  • 4. Your raw chili is now ready to eat!

The Rawtarian's Thoughts

By The Rawtarian

This is a simple raw chili recipe that can be whipped up in a flash. Optionally, you can add 1/2 teaspoon cumin if you have it in your pantry, but it's not necessary.

Re: the mixins, use finely chopped celery or finely chopped (or shredded) carrots (and/or finely chopped mushrooms work well too).

You can eat this chili on its own. Feel free to warm slightly in your dehydrator, although warming it is not necessary. (I don't bother warming it.)

This chili mixture also makes a nice salad topping. Plus, top with optional raw sour cream for yummy chili goodness! (In this picture I didn't take the time to make raw sour cream, but I did grind up cashews using a nut-grinder, which acts like parmesan cheese!)

PS: This recipe is dedicated to TRK member Rhinda! Her recent note inspired me to whip up this recipe this afternoon.

I used a pinch of cayenne pepper so you can barely taste it. But it has a very mild warming taste without being hot. I am not a spicy girl either. Laura-Jane I have to tell you I made this a few days ago and it was so delicious I have been craving it. I had it tonight for dinner and it was so delicious. Thank you for creating delicious, fast and easy recipes. You rock!

Yum!!! This was so good! I really enjoyed it. I didn't have celery so I used parsley instead and I wrapped it in romaine. Thank you very much. Your recipes are easy, tasteful and inspiring.

Love the flavor but not a huge fan of the consistency. I’ll work on that part since it’s easily adjustable ?

Consistency is EVERYTHING with a lot of food processor recipes.... It's the Goldilocks situation :)

This dish was very savory. A non raw and no vegan friend tried it and really enjoyed it. A couple months into my raw, I was getting a little bored but this will be one of my staple dishes. So satiating!

Rosalyn Feinman's Review

Raw chili recipe

Fabulous. I served mine over red peppers, corn and avocado. NB: Do not add any salt. I am a salt first kinda gal no more. I was able to saltus reparus by adding a little more tomato and serving over the sweet, mild veggies. I also added cayenne because I love the kick. Avocado is nice and creamy and pairs well. I recommend soaking the SD toms in warm water, unless in oil. Filling and so satisfying. I am wondering how it might be over riced cauliflower? f
Further research may be required. Lunch to live for!!! Thank you Rawtarian!!!

Omg!!! This is by far the best chili recipe, perfect alone and to die for with the sour cream recipe. I added all of Laura-Jane's suggestions (mushrooms and cumin), and 1/2 chopped red pepper. I wanted to add fresh corn kernels but I was too hungry. I ate the whole big bowl of it. This would be great for a party to serve as a spread for crackers. Mm-mmm, deeelicious! ?

Wow, my first raw recipe from this site and I am impressed! Very good and very easy. Love that it doesn't have garlic or onions as that would overpower it.

KikAllez, you picked a good one for your first recipe!

And you tickled my flattery bone: the combination of "very good and very easy" is, like, the best review I can ever get. That is my goal with all of my recipes. I don't always get there, but I love it when I do.

What's next on your recipe radar?

I made the mushroom soup, the ranch dressing and brownies and icing. All very good. I think today I am doing pasta primavera or 5 minute spaghetti.

Breakfast this morning was a smoothie in Vitmamix. My personal V8: beet, carrot, celery, chard, kale, lemon, tomatoes, cucumbers and jalapeño pepper. It ended up a cold spicy Borsht soup.

I have been cooking a lot of Isa Chandra Moskowitz recipes, which require a ton of ingredients, chopping, many levels of prep work. My kitchen usually ends up like the product section was bombed. So really liking easy and fast. Going back to work in nursing; I need easy and fast. I tend to streamline my cooking by prepping everything before I start. So now that I am not 'cooking' what is called? Prep work? Lol
