Recipe: Smoky Vegan Chili

This recipe is a long-time favorite in my house. Its quick to make and is very healthy. The adobo chili is a must. You can find them in a small can in the Mexican food aisle of most grocery stores. This chili freezes well, so double the recipe if you want.

Smoky Vegan Chili Reviews

• My husband and I loved this chili Didnt even miss the fact that it was not made with meat. I had to substitute diced tomatoes because I did not have stewed. The chipotle gives it just the right amount of kick

• This chili is awesome, kids love it too...

• Made vegan and turkey versions. Both absolutely delish. I add extra chipotle.

• It was ok. Wouldnt make again. Tasted more like a tomato stew type dish rather than chili

• I liked this chili. I added or adapted some things. I used tvp that I had soaked in water first. I used a homemade version of browning sauce and added extra adobe sauce and peppers. Thank you for the recipe.
