I made this for dinner tonight and it was a big hit! I sautéed mushrooms with the pepper and onion and I didn't have any corn so I didn't add that. I will definitely add this to the dinner rotation and I will make it with corn next time. Thanks for a great vegan recipe.

I am revising my previous comment. It was so, so good as I said and I also said I didn't know how I could eat it all, but it was that good and I ate the whole thing. Yummmmm!

In reply to Wendy. Hi Wendy, What a wonderful review! I'm so glad you loved it even without the peppers. Thank you for giving it a try. Yes, you can definitely freeze it for 2-3 months in an airtight container. :)

For some reason I left out the pepper by accident. I'm not sure whether it affected the taste because it was absolutely delicious. It was also one of the easiest recipes I've ever tried. The mix of spices was perfect and it made an enormous quantity. I'm wondering what to do with so much. Freeze? Give away? I can't possibly eat it all in spite of how good it is.
This is the first recipe I've tried from this site. I'm very much looking forward to working my way through many more and discovering new tastes and cooking techniques. Thank you so much for this recipe and all the others that I haven't yet but will try.

In reply to Ruth. Hi Ruth, I'm so glad you loved it! It'll be perfect with the hotter peppers, salsa and cheese shreds! So glad you'll find many uses for this recipe. Thank you for making it and sharing your feedback. :)

I just discovered your website yesterday, and tried this recipe. I used what I had in my pantry, so it's not very spicy, but it is very good! It makes a giant pan full, for just me, so I will freeze some of it for future use. I love batch cooking, and see a lot of options for this dish.
Next time I make it I will try adding hotter peppers to give it a bit more kick!
I'm thinking it would be great with Salsa and cheez shreds stirred in, and stuffed into bell peppers. And in a burrito as you mentioned.
I scooped it up with tortilla chips yesterday, and ate it with a side salad, and it was yummy! I will definitely snoop around on your website for other great recipes!
Thank you so much Melissa!

In reply to Elizabeth Dease. Hi Elizabeth, yes, I think it will still taste good without the beans. :)

Would this taste good without the beans? I'm on a special diet in which I can't have any kind of bean in it. Please advise, thank you.
