The perfect plant-based chili has just the right balance of textures and Gardein is introducing two new canned varieties to suit a range of different preferences. Both varieties of the Gardein Plant-Based Chili are made with the brand's plant-based "be'f," a meatless beef alternative, and they boast up to 28 grams of protein per can.
The Gardein Plant-Based Chili with Beans is the more protein-packed option but the No Beans variety promises to be just as hearty.
These canned comfort food staples have the potential to be warmed and eaten as-is or enhanced with a few fresh vegetables and other ingredients when the recipes are used as bases. The vegan-friendly chili meals promise to make quick and easy weeknight meals, especially in a pinch.
