Notes

  • * This chili is spicy. Consider using a mild chili powder, or add less chili powder to start if you're spice adverse (especially if living in Europe where chili powders tend to be spicier). You can always taste test and add more later.

Storage

  • Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
  • Portion out and keep in the freezer for up to 2 months.

Frequently asked questions

Is homemade chili spicy?

Homemade chili recipes are super flexible, so you can easily adjust the spice level to your liking. This one’s on the spicier side, so if you prefer a milder chili - especially in Europe, where chili powders can be extra hot - start with a mild chili powder or just use less. If you're craving more heat, feel free to add extra chili powder, smoked paprika, jalapeños, or even a pinch of cayenne for an extra kick!

What beans are best for chili recipes with sweet potato?

Pretty much any beans work well in chili with sweet potato, but black beans, kidney beans, and pinto beans are some of the favourites. Mixing different types adds a rich, hearty texture that makes every bite more satisfying!

Can I make chili in a slow cooker?

Yes, you can make vegan chili recipes in a slow cooker. To do so, simply add all the ingredients to the slow cooker, stir well, and cook on low for about 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours. Using a slow cooker allows the flavours to develop and meld with minimal effort.

What can I serve with sweet potato chili?

It can be served with many different sides, like cornbread, toast, rice, tortilla chips, or a fresh salad. We love topping sweet potato chili with avocado, pickled red onions, vegan sour cream, and jalapeño for extra depth. Other topping ideas include cilantro, green onions, lime, and more tortilla chips.

Can I make the vegan chili recipe without tomatoes?

Yes, you can make it without tomatoes. Simply substitute the canned crushed tomatoes and tomato paste with extra vegetable broth or a tomato-free vegetable sauce. This will alter the taste, so adding more vegetables like zucchini, sweet potatoes, or corn, along with extra spices can help maintain the texture and flavour.

Can I add meat substitutes to the vegan chili recipe?

Yes, you can add vegan meat substitutes like textured vegetable protein (TVP), tempeh, or crumbled tofu to chili for an extra hearty boost of protein. It's often easiest to prepare the meat substitute according to the package instructions before adding it to chili.

Such an amazing recipe. Definitely a fall favorite! I’ve made it several times and it’s a huge hit with my family.


Charlotte - Nov. 7, 2024, 9:32 p.m.

Great recipe, the taste is amazing! The only thing I worry about is that it has quite a lot of salt in it (coming from 2 bouillon cubes)... are there any substitutes for this?

PUL small logo PUL Team - Nov. 7, 2024, 11:54 p.m.

Hey Charlotte, thanks for sharing your experience wth the sweet potato chili recipe 🤗 The vegetable bouillon cubes and water can be substituted for equal parts vegetable stock or broth, adding salt or other spices and herbs to taste as needed!


Sara - Oct. 23, 2024, 9:59 p.m.

Hi! Thank you so much for your site, you tube channel...really just everything. I so appreciate who you are in this world! And thank you for making plant based eating so accessible.

Now...I am so excited to make this recipe for my family. Quick question, can I substitute veg broth for the water and bouillion?

PUL small logo PUL Team - Oct. 24, 2024, 2:15 a.m.

Hey Sara, aw you're too kind! Thanks for welcoming us into your kitchen and journey with plant foods 🌱 Indeed, the vegetable bouillon cubes and water can be substituted for equal parts vegetable stock or broth, adding salt to taste as needed. Hope you love the sweet potato chili recipe!


Arlene - Oct. 6, 2024, 11:34 p.m.

Just lovely. Really tasty and a great one pot meal.


Katya - Aug. 25, 2024, 3:25 p.m.

Hello Sadia, I loooove this chilli. I try many and always comme back. I would like to add more veggies to this receipe ( Céleri, carrots ) I might size down the sweet potato to try.
Hope you will have new receipe video soon. I also have a suggestion : back to school vegan hot thermos idea. Not easy to pack lunch , this chilli is perfect for that , this is why im cooking it tonight. Love your channel ❤️

PUL small logo PUL Team - Aug. 26, 2024, 4:58 a.m.

Hi dearest Katya, we're so glad that the vegan chili recipe was enjoyed! Love the idea for hot thermos-friendly lunches as well. There are lots of exciting videos coming soon to YouTube 🥰


Grant Watson - Aug. 23, 2024, 11:50 a.m.

It's delicious but I think I might have had too much liquid as it took 40 minutes to cook, not 30.


Liza Salter - Aug. 19, 2024, 9:24 a.m.

I've made this a few times and love it but I'm making it for a friend tonight who doesn't like sweet potato (!?) - do you think it would work if I replaced the sweet potato with carrots and parsnips? Thanks

PUL small logo PUL Team - Aug. 19, 2024, 9:48 a.m.

Hey Liza! I’m so glad you love the recipe! If your friend isn’t a fan of sweet potatoes, swapping them out for carrots and parsnips should work nicely. Regular potatoes or celeriac would also work. Any substitute will add a different kind of sweetness and texture, but they should complement the chili well. Let me know how it turns out, and I hope your friend enjoys it! 😊

Liza Salter - Aug. 20, 2024, 9:14 a.m.

Hi, thanks for the reply. I can confirm parsnips and carrots work just as well as sweet potato. It was a big hit abd everyone went back for seconds!
Such a good recipe!
Thank you! ☺

Really tasty! Will be making again


Kira - Aug. 1, 2024, 11:41 p.m.

Love the recipe! Easy and tasty. Good for meal prepping. I was just a bit too careful with the chilli in the end. As I like spicy food, I should have been more generous with it😄

PUL small logo PUL Team - Aug. 2, 2024, 5:18 a.m.

Hey Kira, thanks for sharing your experience with the chili recipe! In case it helps, you could sprinkle in some more chili powder or chili flakes for an extra kick 🤗✨


Melissa Frost - July 30, 2024, 1:16 a.m.

So yummy!


Karen Hill - June 5, 2024, 8:12 p.m.

Really tasty - made the recipe for 6 so I could freeze - used half tbsp of extra hot chilli powder and it is just right for me.


Fatty Girl - May 26, 2024, 1:48 p.m.

This was really tasty! I did have to add some chillies to increase the spiciness (I'm Indian 😂)


Abigail - May 16, 2024, 7:29 p.m.

Do the lentils really need to be cooked first separately or can they be included in the 30 minute cook time with the other ingredients? Or will they not cook properly along with everything else?

PUL small logo PUL Team - May 17, 2024, 9:37 p.m.

Hi Abigail, great question! Typically, dry lentils do cook within 20-30 minutes, but when acidic ingredients like tomatoes are present, the cooking time can be longer because the acid affects how the lentils soften.

If you'd prefer to use dry lentils, I'd recommend cooking the lentils separately first. Just boil them in water for about 20-30 minutes until they're tender. Then, add these cooked lentils to your chili pot when you add the beans. This way, your lentils will be perfectly cooked, and your chili won't need extra cooking time. As a headsup, 1 cup of dry lentils usually makes about 2½ cups when cooked. So, for this recipe that calls for 1½ cups of cooked lentils, you'd need to use about ⅔ cup of dry lentils. I hope this helps!


Floortje Washington - April 28, 2024, 7:36 p.m.

Really tasty! Ive made it several times and always comes out great. My only question is the cooking time. 30 minutes is never enough for me, I always need to cook it for at least 45 minutes to cook through the potatoes.

PUL small logo PUL Team - April 30, 2024, 6:55 p.m.

Hey there, Floortje, thanks for sharing your experience with the chili! In case it helps, chopping the potato more finely or turning up the heat a touch can help it cook quicker. So glad to hear you're enjoying the chili! 😊


Sandra - April 25, 2024, 8:41 p.m.

Great recipe! Absolutely delicious. We topped it with Feta.


H. M. - April 24, 2024, 5:50 p.m.

This chili is easily one of my favorite recipes. The sweet potato really is the perfect addition, and the spice blend is on point. I often struggle with protein intake and this recipe is a delicious and easy way to incorporate more into my diet. Absolutely love!

PUL small logo PUL Team - April 24, 2024, 7:59 p.m.

Yayy so glad that the chili is being enjoyed, H. M! We've excited to share more delicious adventures together 💛


Laura - April 15, 2024, 8:15 p.m.

Absolutely amazing! Added spice a bit more generously than the recipe said. It hit my chili-craving spot perfectly and makes even a huge batch!

Sandra Hendrickx - April 11, 2024, 3:24 p.m.

Really tasty and the combination of ingredients is amazing. For me personally, I'd like it to be a little bit heavier on the spices, so that's what I'll be doing next time. Thanks for this lovely recipe!

Absolutely amazing dish, my entire family enjoyed it!

Epic


Ewelina - Feb. 18, 2024, 2:35 p.m.

The dish is very tasty and I make it often. Thank you very much.

I find it very strange that noone mentioned in comments that sweet potato doesn't cook to tenderness in canned tomatoes. The acidity stops the potato from cooking. I boil it separately in water before adding it to the rest of the ingredients.


Zarah - Feb. 15, 2024, 1:04 p.m.

Super yummy and comforting! The portion sizes are very generous and we had a lot of leftovers- perfect for taking to work for the next few days. Thank you so much!

I switched up or left out some ingredients, that I didn't have at home, different each time I've cooked this, but it still tasted amazing at the end.

This was easy to make and quite tasteful. We used pumpkin instead of sweet potato and this was nice.


Jagyoseni - Dec. 6, 2023, 4:10 a.m.

How do we calculate what grams is per serving please? The recipe says it is 596 Kcal per serving. How much of the chilli equals to 596 kcal? Is there an easier way to calculate this with each recipe?

PUL small logo PUL Team - Dec. 8, 2023, 5:38 a.m.

Hey there, Jagyoseni, one reason we don't include grams specifically is it can often vary. For example, it may be more if vegetables are larger or less if a dish simmers for longer and liquid evaporates. If we had to estimate, a serving of this chili may be around 680 grams including the toppings 😊


Elizabeth MacDonell - Dec. 2, 2023, 10:38 p.m.

This has been my go-to chili recipe since it was posted on your website. It is easy to scale down the salt, because my husband needs to eat low sodium, by making sure I get the low/no salt versions of everything. And it's so easy to keep the ingredients on hand for basically whenever- it's basic canned ingredients and pantry staples that last ages.

Vivien - April 15, 2023, 2:03 p.m.

I made this recipe yesterday and it was so delicious!! It was my firt onepot meal that I made and my mom also said it was really delicious. I am from Slovakia and my family cooks very different meals and always the same so I’ve decided to cook for myself some time ago and I’m really happy I can learn from PUL. Thank you so much!!!

Priyansha - April 6, 2023, 9:02 p.m.

This is the first PUL recipe I tried out and I love it! It was easy to make and so very healthy! I maintain a calorie deficit and this recipe fits perfectly into my meal plans. I didn’t have all the ingredients, so I used substitutions — such as chicken broth instead of veg boullion cubes. I also added some shredded chicken to it. I loved the recipe and I will definitely make it again!


R - April 3, 2023, 7:09 p.m.

Wow


Laura - April 3, 2023, 6:35 p.m.

Love it, cooking it today for the second time. It is awesome for nights where I crave tortilla chips, at the same time there's something healthy :) Thanks team!

Hey Sadia,

I've followed the Youtube channel for years now, its been great to see the journey as well as enjoy the recipe and life tips that you share so simply! But I just had to leave a comment on this recipe. I cannot think of another dish that is so nourishing and wholesome(two words that suit Pick Up Limes as a whole :P) and yet bursting with so much flavor. This is fast becoming a staple at home, even the kids can't get enough! And its so versatile, can go with tacos/burritos and with so many different toppings. Keep up the great work and thank you so much for everything so far.

PUL small logo PUL Team - March 20, 2023, 11:14 p.m.

Samantha - March 6, 2023, 6:33 p.m.

I have been vegetarian for 3 years, trying to find the perfect balance in my meals is my favorite part. Let me just say your recipes are a GAME CHANGER
- the beautiful sweet, savory, spicy chili is so perfect and delicious♥️
The craziest part, my mother who is not vegetarian or vegan loves it just as much as I did, and didn’t even miss the meat.
Thanks so much for your amazing meal ideas & health tips

This chilli was delicious!! I ate it at home this time, but am looking forward to taking it on camping trips in the future!

PUL small logo PUL Team - Feb. 28, 2023, 7:25 a.m.

Mmm what a delicious addition to camping trips! Thank you, Amy 😃


Raphael - Feb. 26, 2023, 7:11 p.m.

Had to leave a comment on this chili. It is indeed really rich in flavours and so much fun to make, in particular sautéing the spices.
Instead of using ground cumin which I react to quite a bit I used a pumpkin spice mix with cinnamon, nutmeg, mustard seeds etc., instead of oregano I used savory and instead of sweet potatoes I used potatoes.
I really appreciate that the recipes can be adapted and are really flexible and that you often mention alternative ingredients. It helps to also think of alternatives instead of shopping more special ingredients that just sit in the pantry for ages.
Thank you guys!

PUL small logo PUL Team - Feb. 26, 2023, 10:24 p.m.

Mmm these modifications sound delicious, Raphael - thank you for taking the time to share! It means so much☺️


Celina - Feb. 22, 2023, 3:11 p.m.

A new recipe for the list of favorites! This is so absolutely delicious. This recipe also inspired me to make pickled red onions for the first time and I love them so much. I definetely recommend adding all the toppings, they really transform this recipe from great to divine :-)

PUL small logo PUL Team - Feb. 23, 2023, 12:42 a.m.

Jules (she/her) - Feb. 14, 2023, 9:08 a.m.

Good Morning!
I have been following your Youtube account for a while, and am ALWAYS left with a "blissed" feeling watching them, although I'm pretty sure this sounds rather weird. But the overall combination of the visuals in combination with the background music and the way you're narrating throughout the videos...it's just pure joy and something I'm looking forward to in the next videos.
Anyway...THIS recipe...WOAH! At first I was sceptical about the variety of spices. But once it was done, and I added corn chips, avocado, and sour cream (we are not a vegan household, but now want to concentrate on a nutrition that is more balanced and includes lots of veggies - since I wasn't able to eat them the way I wanted to in the past for several reasons..) - OMG! This way pure magic out of a pot! It probably helped that I made this during one of the darkest weeks in January, and it spread so much warmth and coziness and is just SOOOO darn delicious! Even my 9 year-old son, who - although not a picky eater - doesn't always go for the "new" thing...and these spices were the new thing. We could not stop eating! I cannot wait to cook it again and feel the warmth from the inside again - thank you. Thank you for the content you create and the joy you spread <3 Lots of love from Germany

PUL small logo PUL Team - Feb. 14, 2023, 6:11 p.m.

Hello dearest Jules - awe thank you for the incredibly sweet words and for helping make our PUL community so special. It means so much the content is being enjoyed, and we're so glad even the little one liked the chili! Sending an abundance of love to Germany 💛


Claire - Feb. 13, 2023, 8:46 p.m.

Such a good recipe. Made it for my family who are often sceptical of vegan food and they absolutely loved it and have asked for it again. I’ve also recommended the recipe to all my friends.

PUL small logo PUL Team - Feb. 14, 2023, 3:20 a.m.

Alyssa - Feb. 13, 2023, 12:18 p.m.

First made this recipe a couple of weeks ago and now we are eating it almost every week! My husband usually doesn't like recipes with tomato paste, he thinks it makes the taste a bit sour, so I switched it with thai curry paste and we love it!
Thank you for all the great recipes, Sadia and your team, it really has made cooking a lot more fun!

PUL small logo PUL Team - Feb. 13, 2023, 7:05 p.m.

Ooo Thai curry paste sounds so interesting! Thanks for sharing your experience with it, Alyssa - so glad the recipes are being enjoyed 🙂

I loved this recipe for a lazy stay at home night dinner. To be honest I have cooked many of your recipes and am always stunned by the result, its delicious every single time. Especially the currys and everything with chickpeas. Thank you for your content, it makes my life better, easier and my food healthier. Your positive approach to food is very inspiring, I hope you will continu for many years! Can`t wait to see the next video. :)

Jules Davis - Feb. 9, 2023, 7:13 p.m.

This is my favorite chili ever! It’s part of my monthly rotation and we just had it again last night. This is my go to base chili recipe and I add/substitute whatever veggies or grains that I have on hand.

PUL small logo PUL Team - Feb. 9, 2023, 11:01 p.m.

🙌 🙌 so happy to hear, Jules!


Kayla - Feb. 9, 2023, 7 p.m.

LOVE this chili recipe - it's probably my favorite one!
My almost two-year old also ate it up! The flavors are wonderful, and even though the ingredients list looked long, they are all very common things that the average plant-based eater would have on hand. As a full-time working mom of three kids, I often don't have time to make laborious meals, but this one came together quickly and made the house smell wonderful. I was also able to freeze the leftovers and enjoy it throughout the month. This recipe stays!

PUL small logo PUL Team - Feb. 9, 2023, 10:58 p.m.

Oh, Kayla, we're so thrilled to hear! Wishing you and your little ones an abundance of health and wellness 🤗

PUL small logo PUL Team - Feb. 8, 2023, 2:28 a.m.

Hey Buck, a serving is around a quarter of the recipe if the portion isn't scaled. It works out to around 2 cups per serving 🙂


s - Jan. 25, 2023, 4:27 p.m.

made this for dinner yesterday and it was wonderful! i used an extra can of kidney beans instead of lentils, fire roasted crushed tomatoes, and vegetable broth instead of the bouillon cube and water. i topped it with cilantro, cashew yogurt, lots of lime, and sunflower seeds! i love how flavorful your recipes are - you can really taste the herbs and veggies :)

PUL small logo PUL Team - Jan. 26, 2023, 6:08 a.m.

A huge compliment, Abiška, thank you!


Elyse - Jan. 19, 2023, 5:24 p.m.

Hi Sadia and PULTeam! I really enjoyed this recipe, but I have a couple of questions:
- If I don't love sweet potato in chili, is there anything else you'd recommend for adding that mild sweetness instead? I've seen some recipes use ketchup?
- Are there certain chili spice blends you know of that you'd recommend for folks who like bold flavor, but not too spicy? I saw in the video that Sadia recommends simply cutting back on the amount of chili powder, but I have to admit I have a weak palate for spice:/

Thanks! 😄

PUL small logo PUL Team - Jan. 20, 2023, 7:45 a.m.

Hey there, Elyse, thanks for the lovely questions! We haven't personally tried it with ketchup, but that's an interesting idea. We'd recommend starting with less and adding more to taste as the tomato flavour may be a bit overpowering if too much is added 🙂 You could also add more corn, bell pepper, or kidney beans for sweetness in the chili.

For the spices, there are some blends made from sweet pepper rather than chili pepper so these are less spicy. If you can't find one at your local grocery stores then there are some recipes online that use cayenne pepper, onion powder, and garlic powder for example. You could always start with less and add more to taste! We hope this helps for now 😃

Elyse - Feb. 7, 2023, 10:42 p.m.

Thank you, PUL Team, for the reply! Apologies for the delay on my end as I was traveling and just catching up. Thanks for the tips! Next time I make it, I'll definitely try adding more corn or bell pepper and I love the idea finding a spice blend made with sweet pepper, rather than chili; will check that out! Thanks a bunch, as always!


Kat - Jan. 18, 2023, 8:17 p.m.

Amazing chili, no need to do meat anymore!! So so yummy!


Clara - Jan. 14, 2023, 1:46 p.m.

This chili is yummy! And sooo nourishing! I am pregnant and this recipe hits so many of the nourishment targets I have a in a day. And it yields enough to freeze for another meal. We had it as snack with tortilla chips and as a meal with avocado on top. When we defreeze the rest, we’re thinking of turning it into a burrito, very versatile! Thanks for the recipe, for us it was a success!

PUL small logo PUL Team - Jan. 15, 2023, 2:48 a.m.

Ana Carvalho - Jan. 12, 2023, 7:49 p.m.

Hello from Portugal :) I made this recipe to take to work during the week. This dish in addition to being tasty is quick to make on a Sunday and save for the week. Thank you!
ps. I think I'll add more spice next time :p

PUL small logo PUL Team - Jan. 14, 2023, 10:05 p.m.

Woohoo so glad it's being enjoyed, Ana, and love the extra spice 🌶


Annelies - Jan. 11, 2023, 8:55 p.m.

I made this recipe this evening and it was very tasty! However, with a lot of your recipes, when I add water, it never thickens. After more than 35 min with this recipe, it was still too thin. How could I solve this? Just add less water?

PUL small logo PUL Team - Jan. 13, 2023, 10:54 p.m.

Hey Annelies, so glad it was enjoyed and thanks for the question! Are you by any chance fully covering the pot with the lid rather than partially covering it while the recipe cooks? Only covering the chili partially with the lid helps water evaporate out. You could also fully remove the lid and cook uncovered for longer until it's at the desired thickness 🙂


Maria - Jan. 9, 2023, 5:48 p.m.

What a recipe!! The meal is hearty, filling, you can put it into tortillas together with vegan cream cheese to make amazing wraps😋 My husband and I loved it!🙏🏻


Guendalina - Jan. 6, 2023, 1:14 p.m.

Super warm and cosy, perfect for this season!
I will try again in the summer with pepper too.
Unfortunately I didn’t have chilli powder so I use harissa for a bit of sweet.

PUL small logo PUL Team - Jan. 6, 2023, 2:56 p.m.

Bonnie - Dec. 28, 2022, 7:36 p.m.

What kind of chilli powder do you use? The kind I find in the store is mixed with other spices.

PUL small logo PUL Team - Dec. 30, 2022, 7:10 a.m.

Hey Bonnie, we use a generic chili powder from our local grocery store in the Netherlands, it doesn't specify anything else. If you're in North America, it's likely the chili powder is more mild, so you can stand to use more. If you're in the EU, try adding less to start and add more later to taste 🙂


Charlotte - Dec. 27, 2022, 11:13 p.m.

Do you know how many grams of beans & lentils I would need if I was using them dry & uncooked? Thanks!

PUL small logo PUL Team - Dec. 30, 2022, 6:13 a.m.

Hey Charlotte, dried beans and lentils typically expand around 2-3 times when cooked. You could use between 1/2 cup (around 100g each of beans and lentils) to 3/4 cup (around 140g each of beans and lentils) for four servings. We hope you enjoy the chili if you give it a try 🙂


Treena - Dec. 27, 2022, 10:44 p.m.

PUL small logo PUL Team - July 13, 2022, 6:29 a.m.

Hey there, Chels, we don't although looking at whether your instant pot has a "chili" or "bean" setting may help. If it doesn't, we'd recommend following instructions from a similar recipe online. For example, perhaps cooking on high pressure for 15 minutes, followed by a 10-minute release. Do let us know if you test it out 🙂


Silvia Rodriguez - July 7, 2022, 1:35 p.m.

I love your page! And your recipes, of course!


Lucie R - June 18, 2022, 5:48 p.m.

Hi PUL! What type of chili powder do you use for this recipe? The ones I can find in Dutch stores are in my opinion always extremely spicy and just one teaspoon spices up a meal for four. Can I use mild paprika powder as a substitute or would that alter the flavor profile of this dish?

PUL small logo PUL Team - June 19, 2022, 2:54 a.m.

Hey there, Lucie, we typically use a generic chili powder from our local grocery store. Some varieties can be spicier than others so if you prefer less spice you could certainly use less or opt for a milder alternative such as paprika powder. It will impact the flavour slightly but you could always adjust the other spices to taste if needed 🙂


Lindsey - June 1, 2022, 4:48 p.m.

Excellent flavor and easy to find ingredients! I also appreciated that it was gluten free and easily soy free! Thank you for sharing!!!

Liz - Feb. 3, 2022, 7:36 p.m.

This has become one of our winter staples. My omni parter said he could eat it every day. It's so much tastier & quicker than other chili recipes I've tried.

I make it a little more pantry friendly by using fire roasted diced tomatoes in a can and frozen corn, and usually add some frozen spinach too. We like it a little thicker, so I only add 3 cups of water along with some Better than Bouillon for extra flavor. It's easy to keep all the ingredients on hand for a quick & delicious dinner (with leftovers!)

This was an amazingly satisfying and delicious dish; it was even better with the yogurt and lime! It is one of the best chili dishes I’ve had. Thank you!

Hi!
Love your recipes and your vlog. Thanks a lot!
I’ve always wanted to ask. Which vegetable oil do you use/ recommend? My husband thinks any vegetable oil is bad and we only buy olive oil but there was a film about how most brands of olive oil including Bertolli is not 100% olive oil. So I’m torn now. Please advice 🙏

Hi there, Chimeg, thanks for the kind words question. There are many different types of oil and it can be confusing with all of the mixed messages out there! We tend to gravitate more towards olive or coconut oil, although it depends on the recipe. If you haven't already seen and are interested, we talk about our philosophy and recommendations for fats and oils more in our article here: pickuplimes.com/article/fats-… 😊

Made this tonight, because it was suddenly chilly & rainy out, and I had the majority of the ingredients. Even with a few things missing, it was delicious! I liked this better than another chili recipe I have that takes way more time to make.

I can't wait to try the leftovers, and I'm excited to make it again when I have all the trimmings to make it even better.

Mmm we love chilli on rainy days! So happy the recipe was enjoyed, Liz 🤗

I made this tonight and it was delicious! We added cashew queso I had premade. Just wish I had some avocado to serve with it. Thanks for the great recipes. Keep them coming!

Mmm cashew queso sounds delicious! Thank you, Mandi 😃

For anyone who wants to give this recipe a go, I would definetly recommend to add the avocado and yoghurt as toppings! They really complement the dish rather nicely.

I'm pulling a Julia Julia and doing every one of your recipes this year. I've made five in the past two weeks and they've all been AMAZING. Please never stop all you do! :)

Aw this means so much, Olivia! Thank you for being here and supporting PUL ☺️🌻


Aisling - Aug. 1, 2021, 8:34 p.m.

Absolutely delicious! The avocado and youghurt toppings take it to another level......will definitely be making it again

Woohoo! So glad you enjoyed this one, Aisling :D


Natalia - July 29, 2021, 9:49 p.m.

I tried this today but felt it needed a bit of a flavour boost so I added some sun-dried tomatoes and a vegetable stock cube and it came out amazing! Thank you for the inspiration!

PUL small logo PUL Team - July 29, 2021, 11:24 p.m.

So glad you enjoyed the chilli, Natalia, we find that adding some toppings really brings out the flavour of this one ☺️

This looks fabulous!


Gillian - July 11, 2021, 9:47 a.m.

This chili is AMAZING. I’ve made it multiple times. So hearty, delicious, nutritious. It freezes well too so good for sticking some away for when you need a quick dinner to heat up.

PUL small logo PUL Team - July 16, 2021, 4:28 a.m.

Thank you for the glowing review, Gillian, it's so appreciated!


Evelina V - July 9, 2021, 1:28 p.m.

If you like chilli 🌶 you have to try this. It's mega extra delicious 🤤 And the toppings should not be missed. Thank you Sadia and the team for sharing


Caro - July 8, 2021, 8:39 p.m.

This is seriously the best thing I've ever made. I tried it about 3 months ago and have eaten it at least once a week since then. Thank you so much for this recipe!
