Notes
*Thickness/Consistency: This is called a chili because the primary flavors are using chili seasoning. However, the thickness/consistency of this dish is more like a stew/soup. If you would like a thicker style “chili,” use less liquid.
*Vegetable Stock: We use Pacific Organic Low Sodium Vegetable Stock. We love this brand because it is Whole Food Plant Based compliant, as it does not contain MSG, has no oil, and does not contain any highly-processed ingredients.
*Mild Green Chilies: Make sure to use the mild green chilies versus the hot green chilies.
*Sea Salt: Please adjust the sea salt based upon your family’s sea salt preferences and/or based upon dietary needs.
*Serving: 4
*Storage: Refrigerate and use within 5 days.
