You don’t need meat in your chili to get your fair share of protein. Instead, you can enjoy this protein-full bowl of quinoa, kidney beans, and black beans that are cooked with garlic, onions, red pepper, jalapeños, and spices for guaranteed flavor. This chili isn’t too spicy—it just has a subtle kick—but if you want to up the ante, you can use a whole jalapeño instead of half. This bowl also tastes great topped with some avocado and vegan yogurt.
