Red Chili Recipe

HERE’S WHAT’S TO LOVE
This vegetarian chili is all the good things that I’m looking for:

thick and hearty and “meaty”, like a standard chili texture
beans optional – add if you like them, leave out if you don’t
big, big, big happy flavor
packed with a variety of veggies
easy to make
makes awesome leftovers
meatless!
If you’re vegan, don’t you worry – this is also a VEGAN chili if you just watch your toppings. Avocado, pickled red onion, radishes, tortilla chips… we got you, vegans. Also: see our Instant Pot Pumpkin Walnut Chili recipe – it’s real good.
I am not a vegetarian or vegan but I hope it’s obvious that I think creative plant-based cooking is so fun and I love the positive impact it has on our bodies and the earth. ♡ You can be all kinds of everything (vegan, vegetarian, or none, IMHO) and 100% enjoy this.

Goals for the rest of the month: more vegetables, and more chili nights!
