The Best Vegan Chili

Prep: 10 minutes Cook: 25 minutes Serves: 10
The Best Vegan Chili is a hearty one-pot meal packed with lentils, textured vegetable protein, and black, pinto, and kidney beans. Spiced with chili powder, cumin, and garlic, it blends tomatoes, broth, celery, carrots, and onion for a flavorful, nutrient-rich dish ideal for cozy nights or meal prep.

Ingredients

  • 5 cups vegetable broth
  • 3 stalks celery, minced
  • 2 carrots, peeled and chopped
  • 1/2 medium onion, diced
  • 1.5 tbsp chili powder
  • 1/2 tbsp cumin
  • 1/2 tbsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 cup tomato paste
  • 3/4 cup red lentils, rinsed and drained
  • 1/4 cup textured vegetable protein
  • 1 can diced tomatoes
  • 2 cans black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 2 cans pinto beans, rinsed and drained
  • 2 cans kidney beans, rinsed and drained
  • Instructions

    1. In a large pot over medium heat add in a few tbsp of water the onion, celery and carrots and sauté a few minutes.
    2. Next add in the rest of your ingredients. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to a simmer, cover and cook for 25 minutes.
    3. Once finished taste to see if you want to add any more seasonings or salt.
    4. I like to blend 1/4 of the chili to make it really thick and creamy.
    5. Serve with cashew sour cream and chopped green onions or with cheese sauce over a baked potato. Enjoy!
