Thanks Circulon for funding this recipe!
Today I’m going back to basics and re-making an old favourite: Chilli Con Carne. A meat-free version, of course.
Last month, I posted a round-up of simple vegan weeknight dinners and was blown away by how preferred it was! I ‘d had many ask for very easy vegan supper ideas, which is what motivated me to create it in the first place. it’s really revealed me just how vitaleasyandstraightforwarddishes are for people, especially those that are new to a vegan diet regimen.
So I have actually resolved making even more of those. Including this extremely delicious and gratifying chilli which is extremely easy to make as well as takes just half a hr to cook.
And if you wish to make it extra very easy, you can buy ready-prepared soffrito blends at the supermarket, either in the fresh veg or icy area. This is a mixture of pre-chopped onion, celery and carrots which is the start of this recipe, as well as many others. A really handy mix to maintain in the freezer for soups, vegetable bolognese and so on
This recipe is also packed with plant-based protein (a whopping 25g healthy protein each offering!) which will stop talking any individual who asks where do you get your protein though??.
It’s ideal for making a huge pot of as well as freezing portions for later on. Circulon sent me a. Ultimum Stainless Steal Non-Stick Pot. to aid me produce this dish and also it’s most definitely influenced me to create more large one-pot suppers. Plus, this pot is so extremely easy to tidy, it makes the entire food preparation process a wind, consisting of washing-up.

Recipe Notes
Keep in mind: The only point that quits this recipe from being gluten-free, is that most soy-mince brand names I have actually seen tend to have barley in the active ingredients.
