Ingredients

  • 64 oz tomato juice (I use low sodium)
  • 1 can light red kidney beans
  • 1 can dark red kidney beans
  • 1 can pinto beans
  • 1 can chili beans
  • 2 small cans tomato paste
  • 1 package Gardein Beefless Crumbles
  • 1 tbsp chili powder
  • 1/2 tbsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tbs onion powder
  • 1 tbsp hot sauce (I use Frank's)
  • salt and black pepper to taste
  • handful corn chips optional
  • dash nutritional yeast (to sprinkle on top)

Instructions

  1. Drain and rinse kidney beans and pinto beans.

  2. Add the rinsed beans, chili beans, tomato paste, beefless crumbles, tomato juice, hot sauce and seasonings to a large pot.

  3. Allow chili to heat on a low setting and cover for 30 minutes.

  4. Layer the bottom of your serving bowl starting with a handful of corn chips, the chili, and top with a sprinkle of nutritional yeast.

Recipe Notes

  • The chili is delicious served over a baked potato!
  • You can also prepare this in a crockpot. Add a crockpot liner and your cleanup has never been easier!
  • You can substitute the garlic and onion powder for fresh vegetables, I personally prefer the powder.
