Notes
Aduki beans are small and tasty. Similar to black beans, but red in colour, they work particularly well in a veggie chilli. But do feel free to swap them for other beans such as red kidney or black.Provides four large servings, but could easily stretch to five.Adapted from Bit of the Good Stuff by Sharon Collins.Please note: calories and other nutritional information are per serving.
