Meatless Monday: vegetarian chili with rice and broccoli

Today I was wishfully thinking of cold weather again, and prepared vegetarian chili for dinner. I even used dried beans (instead of canned) and simmered them on low for a couple of hours so the house would smell like fall . . . but alas, it was 80 degrees again today. Still better than 100+ though!

Hopefully we'll have some long-lasting fall weather soon.
