Whether it’s chilly or not outside, it can be a chili-day inside! Especially during football season, this dish is easy to make, simple to serve and is packed with lots  of plant-based protein and nutrients. It’s filling too and will satisfy anyone’s appetite. I added half of a package of Lightlife Smart Ground Mexican Crumbles, but it’s purely optional based on whether you’d like a heavier, “meatier” consistency. The kids, who love a little heat on almost everything, like sprinkling various spicy sauces on it, like Frank’s Hot Sauce and Sriratcha Sauce, but I love this recipe as is. image
