Wicked Good Veggie Chili

Great recipe, but I did double the recipe and spices. Really very good!

This is a great basic recipe for veggie chili. I omitted the honey because I don’t care for the bitter taste and added 2 tablespoons of white sugar. I also added a can of stewed tomatoes in addition to tomato sauce. To avoid over salting I use all “no salt added” canned ?ingredients. Quick tip if you use sugar add half while you sweat the onions and garlic with half of the seasoning. It gives it a nice caramelizarían before adding the TVP to marry the flavors. I did feel the recipe didn’t call for enough chili powder.

I used only the first half of the seasoning because it was spicy enough at that point.

Fairly quick, and very good. The TVP makes it a bit pale in color, so I add mostly black beans, to keep the color dark and rich. Really like the touch of cinnamon.

This was quite delish! I did cut down on the cayenne as others suggested and glad I did. I used 1/2 the amount called for. Also, drained and rinsed one can of beans and replaced that liquid with the same amount of veggie broth. Everything else remained the same. I will make it again for sure. I think I might even add more tvp next time. This is a keeper!! Thank you Paulina. As a side note, I’m new to a more plant based diet/vegan and trying to find good, easy recipes particularly for diner. This fits the bill. 🙂

I make this every New Years for our party. Everyone loves it. It has a kick but is very tasty.

This is an excellent recipe and very tasty. I tweaked it a bit. Didn’t add the cayenne pepper and honey, and it still tasted really yummy. I also used very good quality tomatoes and a 1/4 cup of Bragg’s Liquid Aminos. Next time I will make a double batch of this recipe to have leftovers.

I could not bring myself to add the beans unrinsed so I just added a can of water to it.

Very good; very tasty. I lost some of the juice from the canned beans and put in some “Better than Boullion” broth. Also used Morningstar Griller Crumbles instead f reconstituting dry TVP.

This is superb! I cut the cayenne by 1/2 a teaspoon and added more tvp and stock to compensate. I also threw in a few fresh tomatoes and tomato paste. Thanks so much for this recipe! It warmed us on a cold, rainy day.

The nutrition information is missing a serving size. The nutrition information is useless without a serving size.

True five star, but I never used TVP and I do it in a crock pot like others. Use a package of BOCA crumbles sauteed with the onion and dump everything in the crockpot on low for 4-8 hours. The longer the better IMHO. If your family doesn’t like much spice, reduce the chilli powder by half.

awesome recipe. I also add 1/2 tsp of unsweetened cocoa powder to the spice mix. I soaked Tvp in veggie broth and therefore used less salt than this recipe called for. will make this again.

This was fantastic and so easy! Just swapped out vegetable broth for the water. It’s going in our menu rotation immediately!

Love, love, love this… It is my go to chili recipe now and everyone always asks me for the recipe. The only thing i do different is just add a bunch more different types of peppers (anaheims, pablanos, etc) and halve the cayenne. Sometimes i will make this with meat instead of TVP to satisfy my hubby but he’s tried it the other way too and didnt have any complaints. This is a keeper and the cinnamon and honey really make the dish!

Yum recipe. The spices are delightful with a little sweetness. I would prob add more tvp next time though. I had mine with brown rice and cheese and sour cream stirred through, YUMMO!

W.O.W. Amazing. THANK YOU PAULINA!

We loved this recipe! My husband liked the heat but I could have had it a bit less spicy. I did make a mistake and added the green onion in the cooking instead of using it as a garnish. I used a orange pepper because I like them better than green and the carrots I used were pre-shredded and organic from Publix. I don’t know where you find those size cans of beans and tomatoes so I used 2-15 oz cans of beans and a 28 oz can of diced tomatoes. I also used 1 cup of Gardein beefless ground brand veggie crumbles. This was soooooo good especially with the homemade loaf of bread that my husband baked.

I like hot food but this was EXTREMELY HOT and not in a good way. I have never tasted anything so hot. I had to add two extra cans of tomatoes and two extra cans of rinsed beans to eliminate some of the heat. STILL TOO HOT.

We make this without tvp.

SO GOOD! I leave out the cinnamon, but the honey is an awesome touch!! I use 1C of TVP, add corn, olives, & sub a can of kidneys for mixed beans, sub a can of diced tomatoes in juice for a can of crushed tomatoes in tomato sauce, makes it a bit thicker.
