This rich bean and vegetable chilli is a real winner! I usually make a large batch of this and freeze portions so that I have a great stock ready when I need a quick meal. This recipe is vegan and gluten free. I used a sachet of The Fresh Sauce Company Tex-Mex chilli sauce for this recipe (gifted to me in exchange for the photography I did). The sauce is packed full of ancho chillies, cocoa, slow cooked tomatoes and spices so all you need to add are the beans and some water, but I’ve also added a tin of chopped tomatoes, an onion, a courgette and a tin of sweetcorn.
Serve the chilli with nacho chips, rice or over a jacket potato. Or another way to serve it is in flour tortillas with fresh salad and guacamole.
