No matter how many times we serve a black bean dish, we hear cheers of joy from our family.  These sweet little beans go well with greens, fruits, sweet potatoes, squash – just about anything – and it seems everyone has a different go-to addition to our black bean dishes!

The boys especially love this black bean vegan chili, because it's super tasty, hearty and filling! We love it because it's packed with plant based protein, fiber and veggies. And you know what else? We love the fact that it's ready in 30 minutes! Our secret weapon? Dorot Gardens Sautéed Glazed Onions and Cilantro. They're always in our freezer, ready to use when we need them, because they pretty much cut our prep time in half. So incredibly convenient!!

Ingredients for a black bean cihili

When serving our vegan chili, we like to put out a toppings bar for everyone to add in their favorite condiments:

  •  Diced avocados
  • Fresh or pickled jalapeño slices
  • Fresh or pickled red onions
  • Tomatoes
  • Vegan or dairy Greek yogurt
  • Fresh mango or pineapple
  • Sriracha or other hot sauces
  •  Sweet peach mango or spicy salsa.
  • Fresh cilantro

And of course, a huge bowl of tortilla or plantain chips, to scoop out all the goodness.

Serve our black bean chili with a pitcher of margaritas, fresh crusty French or sourdough bread, our delicious Avocado-Cucumber Salad and Quinoa Pomegranate Salad or Fennel Salad. So good!

    This was SO easy! I had all the ingredients and it was surprisingly so, so good for something so quick and simple to make.

    When I have more time, I will pair this with one of your cornbread recipes.

    Thanks!

We are Vicky & Ruth, authors of the vegan cookbook Tahini and Turmeric.

From our mother's fragrant Lebanese dishes to our grandmother's secret Sephardic Turkish specialties, our Moroccan friend's fragrant recipes, our sister's vibrant Israeli creations, and our neighbor's authentic Spanish fare, each dish was a key that unlocked new exciting yumminess.
