Description
This vegan black bean chili is hearty, healthy, and so satisfying. It's ready in only 30 minutes and uses 10 simple ingredients.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 small yellow onion (diced)
- 4 cloves garlic (minced)
- 3 tablespoons chili powder
- 2 tablespoons cumin
- 2 cups vegetable broth
- 2 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes, undrained
- 2 (15 ounce) cans black beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 (15 ounce) can pinto beans, drained and rinsed
- Salt & pepper (to taste)
For Serving (Optional):
- Cilantro
- Avocado
- Lime
- Tortilla chips
Instructions
- Cook the onion: in a large pot or dutch oven over medium high heat, add olive oil. Once hot, saute the onion 3 - 4 minutes, until translucent.
- Add garlic & seasonings: add the garlic, chili powder and cumin to the pot. Cook for 1 minute more, stirring frequently.
- Cook the chili: add the remaining ingredients to the pot. Bring the pot to a boil and then simmer, uncovered and stirring occasionally, for 15 minutes. If you prefer a thinner chili you can add additional vegetable broth (or water). The chili will thicken slightly as it sits.
- Serve: serve warm, optionally topped with cilantro, avocado, a squeeze of fresh lime juice and a side of tortilla chips.
