"Spicy Vegan Quinoa Chili"

Simple, Delicious and your new favorite Vegan Chili recipe! That's what this is. I make three different kinds of Vegan Chili but this one was born out of my husbands desire for a more hearty Plant Based Chili and my desire to see him smile. We found a happy medium in this dish, it's not so hearty that I feel like going to sleep after eating or so light that you have to have two bowls to be satisfied. You will not miss the meat at all, I certainly don't and nor do my many patrons who visit me just to buy that's right "buy" a bowl of this tasty chili. ENJOY!
