The BEST Vegan Chilli Recipe

With winter here and it the nights getting colder, what a better time than to try out my new favourite - Vegan Chilli!

This recipe is seriously super easy, super nutritious and DELICIOUS!

It's also one of those meals that is easily frozen and re-heated, making it perfect for meal-prepping or to cook in bulk to enjoy straight away and have plenty left to freeze for another time.

Ingredients:

• 1 large onion - diced

• 1 large green pepper - diced

• 1 large red pepper - diced

• 3-4 cloves garlic - minced

• 1/2 jar Passata sauce

• 1 can diced tomato

• 2 cups vegetable broth - a few tsps extra for cooking

• 1/2 can refried beans

• 1-3 tsps chilli powder - to taste

• 2 tsp paprika

• 1 tsp oregano

• 1 can white beans - drained & rinsed

• 1 can chick peas - drained & rinsed

• 1 can kidney or black beans - not drained

• 1/2 tsp pepper

• 1/2 tsp garlic powder

Instructions:

Using the extra vegetable broth - saute onions & peppers for 5 minutes. Add garlic and continue to saute for a few more minutes.

Add all other ingredients and bring to the boil. Turn down heat and allow to simmer for 90 minutes.

I serve with a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese and a handful of whole-wheat tortilla chips or a piece of sourdough bread but this is completely optional.

I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as my family and I do!
