Vegan Chilli Con Carne

858 g
This dish is great for those times when you are in a rush and need a recipe that no one can say a bad word about, as my mother has proved many times. This chilli gets put on the table pretty much every time she gets home late from work, has not to told us to cook dinner and has not got any vegetarian meals in the freezer for my sister. Which is probably more often than you think, but do you hear me complaining? Certainly not! This fiery little number pairs wonderfully with most grains, so serve it with quinoa, brown rice, buckwheat etc. top with some fresh herbs, perhaps, coriander or parsley and a dollop of yoghurt. I am getting hungry already!
