Vegetable Chilli Recipe

If you're looking for a great chilli recipe with depth of flavour, smokiness and oomph, this is it.  It has a real kick, with a deep smoky flavour from the chipotle in adobo sauce (find it in the supermarket's Mexican or cook's ingredients sections).  Serve the chilli with rice or jacket potatoes, and yummy guacamole and salsa on the side.  To get a head start on future meals, make double and freeze half.
