Just mix all the ingredients in a small bowl and store in an airtight container. I found these wonderful little glass bowls at Crate and Barrel that have tops, and they are great for food storage. I like to see my food because I tend to forget what I have if I can't see it.
This is a very easy dish to make, it's ready in under 30 minutes. I didn't include a meat alternative in the recipe, but it can easily be added. I like adding field roast, a meat alternative and my daughter puts diced chicken in her chili. If you would like a vegan sour cream, check out this recipe. Give this Chickpea Chili with DIY Chili Seasoning and make you and your family happy. You won't be standing at the stove for long periods of time and they won't have to wait too long.

It's warm here in Texas, but I so wish it was more like winter. I miss seeing snow, I moved to Texas 13 years ago. I'm glad you like the seasoning, have fun with it.
Gina says
This looks great! I don't make chili very often. But, it's something that hubby loves. It would be great for us to enjoy this meal together as I don't eat meat. Also, I've never thought of chickpeas in my chili. I love them though, so why not?! 🙂
Carrie Groneman says
Now this looks amazing and a recipe I definitely want to try! Your photography is fabulous too!!!
Carol @ The Red Painted Cottage says
Celeste, this sounds so great! We love beans, chickpeas and chili so I'm going to have to try making this (my husband loves meat, but I can take it or leave it). Every now and then I make meatless meals and this will be one of them. Thanks for sharing this.
Celeste says
Hi Carol,
You can do what we do at my house, my daughter adds chicken. But meatless Monday's sounds good too.
Michelle says
This is the second chili recipe I've seen this week! I guess with Winter here everyone is thinking the same thing. I love chili but I've never tried it with chickpeas before. Your dish looks amazing! Popping over from #waywow Facebook
Celeste says
Thanks Michelle, I hope you have a chance to give it a try.
lynn says
Celeste...I do believe that you need to open your own restaurant...as well as that cookbook I told you about. Your recipes are so fantastic and your photos...just luscious. You are so talented. Oh, and by the way, what time do you serve dinner? I'll be there.
Wishing you a happy weekend.
Hugs, Lynn
Celeste says
Thanks Lynn,
I hope you are having yourself a Happy Valentine's day weekend.
Cathy Lawdanski says
Making your own seasoning is great. I love smoked paprika!

Celeste says
Thanks Cristina, I'll join the party.
Jessica says
We are no beans in the chili people here, but this looks incredible. I cannot wait to try this chili seasoning though! I have been looking for ways to get more tumeric into our diets!
Celeste says
I hope you like it, what's nice about it is you can adjust the seasoning to meet the needs of your family.
Katrin says
Celeste, I love all your recipes! Can't wait for the next one! This Chickpea Chili must be amazing, I love chickpeas, and the way you garnished this chili, looks so good! Great recipe, Thanks so much!
