Jump to Recipe

If you are vegan then you know how important a chili recipe is. Essentially chili is a meal that packs a ton of protein, fresh vegetables and the holy trinity of some aromatics. Chili is that one meal that mostly everyone enjoys. Its the vegan go to when the week is coming to an end and you need to use up all that fresh produce you probably purchased the last weekend. With Fall and Winter around the corner we most likely are already planning what meal is going to keep us warm and nourished all winter long. And I don’t know about you but standing over a stove in the middle of winter is no fun. That’s why this recipe is both Instant Pot and Crock Pot friendly. Hooray for more Netflix under our cozy blankets in our pijamas.

What ingredients make a good chili?

As far as I am concerned a good chili goes a long way when you have just the perfect amount of dry seasonings, spices and freshly sauteed aromatics. For the most part most chilis are full of vegetables and beans. However, this chili is a little different. I mainly wanted to concentrate on highlighting how good Lima Beans and Great Northern Beans can be together when combined with the earthiness of hominy. Now if hominy is not your thing you can easily replace it for some creamy potatoes. But I encourage you to give it a chance. I remember when I was taste testing and getting friends of opinions on it. We mostly agreed that the flavor and broth of this chili was almost that of a pozole.
