Vegan Chili – my favorite comfort food!

How amazing is chili? I love comfort food like chili and curry very much since it’s hearty, healthy, and delicious. This vegan chili recipe is easy to make and can be served with rice, potatoes, pasta or flatbread. My chili sin carne (chili without meat) is packed with healthy veggies and is full of flavor.

I often prepare a huge pot of chili as my boyfriend can’t get enough of it, so we often end up eating chili twice a week.

Eating Chili is healthy

Did you know that eating hot red chili peppers may help us live longer? “A study of more than 16,000 people in the United States revealed that individuals who consumed red chili peppers had a lower risk of death from all causes over an average of 18 years than those who did not eat the spicy food.” How amazing is that?

This vegan chili recipe contains hot red chili peppers which makes it a healthy and delicious comfort meal.

You can make this chili with kidney beans, white beans, pinto beans or black beans. I often use two cups of kidney beans and 2 cups of white beans but you can use one cup of each, it’s totally up to you. You can sprinkle some fresh cilantro or parsley on top which will add even more flavor to this vegan chili con carne.

Easy to make recipe

This vegan chili recipe doesn’t require any fancy ingredients. It took me about 40 minutes from start to finish. I would recommend however to let the chili simmer for more than 30 minutes, as is will be even more flavorful the longer it cooks.
