Instant Pot Vegi Chili
Flavorful chili that is quick and easy to make.
Instructions
Combine the beans, tomatoes, ketchup, garlic, taco seasoning, red onion, chilis, broth in your instant pot. Stir thoroughly. Program to bean/chili and let cook.
About 10 minutes before the pot is done pour olive oil in skillet. Brown your vegi crumbles. I like them to be a bit crisp for texture. Once the chili is done pour the crumbles in and stir.
Ready to serve and top with your garnishes.
Recipe Notes
*For the vegi crumbles I used the Smart Ground Mexican
You could easily make this in a crockpot as well.
If you wanted to use ground chicken, turkey, or beef you could substitute as well.
