SIMPLE VEGAN CHILLI CON CARNE RECIPE

This simple vegan chili con carne recipe uses a mixture of pantry staples and fresh vegetables, for a delicious meat-free hearty vegan chili.

I have recently turned back towards my pantry/store cupboard ingredients and a fresh produce delivery to help me create delicious and nutritious meals every week. This easy vegan chili con carne is a particular favorite of mine for its customizability and storage options.

In fact, this vegan recipe has become one of my favorite options for chucking in a lot of veggies in a way that’s still really enjoyable for the whole family to eat, while remaining meat-free. Plus, with the addition of soy – you’re able to take advantage of the higher protein levels.

However, it’s also not 100% necessary if you have none to hand and can easily be swapped out with sweet potato chunks or even more beans, depending on what you have available (hence its nickname ”pantry chili”). Really, I honestly just love this recipe for how customizable it is to what ingredients you have at hand.

As I said above, though, one of the best pros of this hearty vegan chili recipe is the storage options. Not only is this recipe amazing for meal prep and can be served alongside quinoa or rice throughout the week. It’s also easily portioned and frozen for up to three months! I always make a massive batch whenever I’m cooking so I know I have spares to hand – when needed.

Lastly, depending on if you’re using tinned beans or pre-soaking and cooking them yourself (which will take longer), this recipe can take just 25 minutes of prep and cooking – so great for a quick, nutritious option.

Note, this recipe can serve up to 8 people. I like batch cooking this recipe because this is very freezer-friendly. So I separate it into portions and freeze it for up to 3 months.

 Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 red onion, chopped
  • 200g small button mushrooms
  • 1 red capsicum, chopped
  • 1 yellow capsicum, chopped
  • 3 garlic cloves, crushed
  • 1 tbsp smoked paprika
  • 3 tsp ground cumin
  • 2 tsp ground coriander
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 810g can crushed tomatoes
  • 300g sweet potato, peeled, chopped
  • 1 zucchini, sliced
  • 400g can kidney beans, drained, rinsed
  • 400g can Coles Cannellini Beans, drained, rinsed
  • Corn chips, to serve
  • Sliced avocado, to serve
  • Sliced red chilli, to serve
  • Fresh coriander sprigs, to serve
  • Lime cheeks, to serve
  • Select all ingredients

Instructions

    • Start by prepping the veg and beans. Finely chop the veggies – carrots, celery, bell peppers, garlic, onion and fresh chilli pepper.
    • If using tinned kidney beans then you’ll want the beans rinsed and drained. Alternatively, you can pre-soak some dry beans ( for at-least 4 hours, or overnight). Then cook these separately and these will be ready to go.
    • Heat up the olive oil in a big saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and fry until they are soft.
    • Add the spices, soy mince, and tomato purée/ passata ( tinned diced tomatoes also works). Cook for 3-4 minutes while stirring occasionally.
    • Add the chopped tomatoes and the veggie stock. Stir well. Cook for another 3-4 minutes, and bring to a boil.
    • When the mix starts bubbling, lower the heat and simmer for another 3-4 minutes.
    • Add the chopped peppers, celery and carrots. Stir well and cook for a few minutes. Note: I add the veggies at this stage, as I like them a little more crunchy. If you prefer them much softer, then add them right after the onion and garlic.
    • Finally, add the cooked red kidney beans. Mix well and simmer for a few further minutes, until the beans are completely heated through.
  • Your soy chilli is then ready to serve immediately, or be portioned into meal-prep/ freezer-friendly containers. If you’re storing some for later, just make sure that it has completely cooled down before moving to the fridge/freezer. Serve your chilli con Carne hot with sour cream ( or vegan yogurt), fresh herbs and lime. I like to pair mine with brown rice or quinoa, or even as a topping for a baked sweet potato.You can also use the chilli as tortilla filling and make delicious vegan burritos or serve with corn chips and dairy-free cheese for a nachos style dish.Keep in thefridge for 4-5 days or the freezer for up to three months.

  • STEP 1

    Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Put the sweet potato in a roasting tin and drizzle over 1½ tbsp oil, 1 tsp smoked paprika and 1 tsp ground cumin. Give everything a good mix so that all the chunks are coated in spices, season with salt and pepper, then roast for 25 mins until cooked.

  • STEP 2

    Meanwhile, heat the remaining oil in a large saucepan over a medium heat. Add the onion, carrot and celery. Cook for 8-10 mins, stirring occasionally until soft, then crush in the garlic and cook for 1 min more. Add the remaining dried spices and tomato purée. Give everything a good mix and cook for 1 min more.

  • STEP 3

    Add the red pepper, chopped tomatoes and 200ml water. Bring the chilli to a boil, then simmer for 20 mins. Tip in the beans and cook for another 10 mins before adding the sweet potato. Season to taste then serve with lime wedges, guacamole, rice and coriander. Will keep, in an airtight container in the freezer, for up to three months.

    To make in a slow cooker
