This vegan chili recipe is super easy to make and stores well for next-day lunches. Serve with crackers or over rice. Perfect for Meatless Monday or any day of the week!

Optional: Add a “meaty” texture with a faux beef product (Beyond Meat Beefy Crumbles works well). Melt some vegan cheese on top (Follow Your Heart melts well).

Chef’s note: For a smoky flavor, add 2 teaspoons of smoked paprika in at the very end.
