Instant Pot Vegan Chili

March 23, 2018 by Holly | 1 Comment

You won’t even miss the meat in the Instant Pot Vegan Chili! Full of beans and vegetables it is hearty, delicious and good for you!

Instant Pot Vegan ChiliOnce upon a time I was a vegetarian. Yep, a full fledged vegetarian for over a year. I read the book ‘Diet for a New America’, by Jon Robbins, and it was a life changer for me. Even though I started gradually eating meat again (for a few reasons) I still love to eat vegetarian meals. I think it’s good for us to have a few meatless meals a week. This recipe for Vegan Chili is made in the Instant pot and from my contributor Allison Sklar. Allison’s recipes amaze me each and every time. I cannot wait to try her chili recipe!

As the days grow longer and the temperatures begin to rise, and soup and stew season comes to an end, I can’t help but cling to all of my beloved comfort foods. At the top of my ‘favourite meals’ roster lies my mouth-watering mixed bean chilli. A go-to crowd-pleaser, I make it whenever I’m hosting my most carnivorous friends to ensure that they never ‘miss’ the meat. The only downside to my usual chilli is that it takes a loooong time for all of those yummy flavours to mingle. But, because I am a food wizard, I’ve found a magical chilli hack! It’s the Instant Pot to the rescue! This incredible pressure cooker has allowed me to cook up weekend-worthy dinners every night of the week. This Instant Pot version of my vegan chilli tastes just as good as my original, but it cooks in a fraction of the time. It freezes super well too – though after one taste,  I doubt you’ll have many leftovers.
