Ultimate 3 Bean Vegan Chili

This 3 Bean Vegan Chili can be made in the slow cooker on high for about 4 hours. Or, you can make it on your stove top, as I typically do. Either way, be sure to make plenty.

What is Vegan Anyway?

Well, a person who does’t eat animal products, such as meat, eggs, honey or dairy. Initially, the word vegan was defined as an animal-based foods diet. Nowadays, the new meaning of Vegan is commonly referred to non-food products. Consisting of such things as clothing, cosmetics, and medicine, that are not made with animal-derived substances.

Vegan Chili Recipe

First of all, this has been one of my kids favorite meals, especially on a cold winter day. Although, when my children became adults and wanted the recipe, so I really had to think about each step in the process and what ingredients I used. Surprisingly, I always made it a tad different, depending on what I had in the frig. Then, one day I put pen to paper and created the recipe for my girls. Thankfully, I give all the credit to my own Mother, who made her chili the same way. I hope you enjoy it as much as we all do.
