Instructions
- In a large pot over medium heat cook the garlic with olive oil and until fragrant. (2 minutes)
- Add the diced onions, red bell pepper, adobo peppers, liquid smoke, vegan Worcestershire, cumin and chili powder and cook for an additional 5 minutes until onions are slightly browned.
- Rinse all of the beans and add them to the pot with the crushed tomatoes, and broth.
- Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer.
- Cook for 10 minutes to let the flavors blend and allow it to thicken.
- For the best flavor, let the chili simmer on low for a few hours.
- If you haven’t soaked the cashews for a long time, add them to the blender first with a little almond milk. Blend until smooth.
- If not simply add everything in and blend until smooth. For a more vibrant orange simply add an additional fork tender carrot. To monitor the heat factor you can add 1/2 the adobo pepper and blend.
- Add more almond milk a little at a time to achieve the desired consistency if yours is too thick.
- Top with the garnishes. Store in the fridge if not enjoying. pop in the microwave to enjoy warm! (be sure to stir occasionally to prevent it from drying out)
- To assemble lay out all the chips then top with chili, grilled corn, avocado, vegan sour cream, nacho cheese, limes, cilantro and red onion!
