Vegan Slow Cooker Chilli Recipe

Whether you’re trying Veganuary this year or just making more plant-based swaps to your diet, this vegan chilli con carne recipe is bound to be a winner.

Vegan Slow Cooker Chilli

We've made our recipe meatless by switching beef, which is the usual meat in chilli, for kidney and black beans, which are a great source of fibre and plant-protein. We've also added sweet potato and heaps of vegetables, so it is packed with all important vitamins and minerals too.

Vegan Slow Cooker Chilli

Not only does our latest healthy vegan recipe taste incredible, but it's super simple to make, with no fussy preparation needed. All you need to do is throw everything into the slow cooker and leave it to do its thing for 4 to 5 hours.

Slow cooker meals are perfect for feeding all the family, or ideal for easy but nutritious meal prep. Our vegan chilli makes 8 servings, which can be kept in the fridge for up to 3 days or can also be frozen in Tupperware boxes.
