Enjoy the best easy vegan chili you’ve ever had with our scrumptious easy vegan corn bread and citrus infused vegan butter!
This super easy recipe is one of my favorite go-to meals when I need something hearty and satisfying in a pinch. Enjoy it with tortilla chips or warm corn bread. Top it with ripe avocado, vegan cheese, fresh salsa, and a sprig or cilantro. You’ve got an entire meal in a bowl. Everything goes into one pot – no extra cookware to wash.
This quick & easy recipe is prepared with canned or precooked beans. I suggest using a variety. Some stores carry mixed or tri-beans, which are handy. I like to use a combo of kidney, pinto and black beans. Sometimes I’ll throw in a can of garbanzos. Why not?
