You might change directions 1 to add onion.
updated. thanks!
This looks delicious! Just a heads up though, in the first instruction it says “ass onion and garlic…”. Thinking it should say “add”.
thanks 🙂
Do you drain the canned beans?
yes drain and wash and use.
Delicious as always Richa. I added sweet potatoes but otherwise made it exactly as in the recipe. We love beans in our house and can always rely on your recipes. Thanks, Rusty
Thanks!
Hello Richa!
Really interesting recipe! Thanks for sharing!
So delicious! I usually don’t really like chili but I love this one. I’m definitely going to be making this again and again.
Awesome!
This recipe was really really really good! A very nice taste. I added my leftover butternut squash instead of throwing it away and it was WOW!
Awesome!
I’m a new vegan and was kind of missing a bowl of chili until this recipe. Fantastic! The linge I go without meat and dairy the less I miss it. I’m amazed.
Great!
Truly amazing! I have done 6 of your recipes so far and they were all excellent! The flavors were spot on. I also love that you do not add much oil. Thank you!
So glad they all came out so well!
Could this be done in the crockpot? Thanks.
You maybe be able to. I dont know.
Thanks for this delicious recipe – I cooked mine in my slow cooker on high for 4 hours (probably could have still gone for another hour had I not needed to go to sleep!) and it was delightful.
I’ve been telling everyone about it! 🙂
Awesome!
Added butternut squash and three ears of fresh cut corn. Delicious!
Will canned tomatoes work?
Thank you for all the delicious recipes.
I made this tonight and it was delicious! I put it over whole grain elbow pasta and served cornbread on the side (Trader Joe’s mix that I “veganized” with a flax egg, unsweetened nut milk, and cut the oil in half by using applesauce). Three of the four people in my family inhaled it because I cannot please one of my picky teens.
Wanted to also share that all the dishes I have made from your website are very tasty and ones I will make repeatedly. Thank you for all the time and effort you put forth in creating your recipes and mainting your web site!
My family absolutely loved this for dinner. Nothing could have tasted better on a cold and dark night than a hot bowl of yum. Next time I want to try it with a sweet potato. I am always so impressed with everything I have made. I love how your spice combos are always spot on.
thats awesome!! so glad everyone loved it!
