Heat two tablespoons of butter in a large saucepan, add the sliced onions and sauté briefly. Add the carrots, peppers and mushrooms and fry briefly. Roast some tomato paste at the bottom of the pot, deglaze with red wine and let it reduce. Add the tomatoes, kidney beans and corn, a little water and 2-3 bay leaves. Cover the saucepan and simmer for about 30 minutes over low to medium heat. Stir occasionally. Add two tablespoons of herbal cream cheese, season to taste with salt, pepper, chili powder and spices of your choice.
