Best 5 Vegan Chili Con Carne With Beans Recipes

SIMPLE VEGAN CHILLI CON CARNE RECIPE

Steps:

• Start by prepping the veg and beans. Finely chop the veggies - carrots, celery, bell peppers, garlic, onion and fresh chilli pepper.
• If using tinned kidney beans then you'll want the beans rinsed and drained. Alternatively, you can pre-soak some dry beans ( for at-least 4 hours, or overnight). Then cook these separately and these will be ready to go.
• Heat up the olive oil in a big saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and fry until they are soft. Note: If you prefer the veggies (peppers, celery, carrots) very soft, add them at this point. I prefer them more crunchy so I add them later on.
• Add the spices, soy mince, and tomato purée/ passata ( tinned diced tomatoes also works). Cook for 3-4 minutes while stirring occasionally.
• Add the chopped tomatoes and the veggie stock. Stir well. Cook for another 3-4 minutes, and bring to a boil.
• When the mix starts bubbling, lower the heat and simmer for another 3-4 minutes.
• Add the chopped peppers, celery, and carrots. Stir well and cook for a few minutes. Note: I add the veggies at this stage, as I like them a little more crunchy. If you prefer them much softer, then add them right after the onion and garlic and skip this step.
• Finally, add the cooked red kidney beans. Mix well and simmer for a few further minutes, until the beans are completely heated through.
• Your soy chilli is then ready to serve immediately, or be portioned into meal-prep/ freezer-friendly containers. If you're storing some for later, just make sure that it has completely cooled down before moving to the fridge/freezer. Serve your chilli con Carne hot with sour cream ( or vegan yogurt), fresh herbs and lime. I like to pair mine with brown rice or quinoa, or even as a topping for a baked sweet potato.You can also use the chilli as tortilla filling and make delicious vegan burritos or serve with corn chips and dairy-free cheese for a nachos style dish.Keep in the fridge for 4-5 days or the freezer for up to three months.
