This Vegetarian White Chili is made with vegan cream cheese, super easy to make and seriously delicious. Also entirely plant based and gluten free.
WHAT IS WHITE CHILI?
A white chili is a classic chili made with white beans, chicken, cheese, and cream. Often you can also find sour cream on the ingredient list as well.
Obviously this combination is not vegan or diary free. Before vegan days, white chili was one of my favorites. Pretty easy to make and full of flavor.
You can imagine that I often used prepacked mixes. Just open a package and the flavor “magic” will happen.
Easily done, you only need a bunch of ingredients and you can do it. All was well explained, it was a dumb easy method.
Well, of course, that’s way in the past. Now, I made a vegan version of white chili and it turned out so delicious.
I never expected that you can veganize this classic dish in such a way.
I made it for some friends and even the pickiest meat lovers finished the bowl in no time.
Try it for yourself, serve to friends, loved one or family. It’s hearty, creamy, flavorful, wonderfully satisfying, stuff that you would eat almost every day, packed with incredible flavors, protein rich and so easy to make.
