Meatless Friday: It's Chili Season

 Feeling a cold snap in the air? We've checked the Meatless Friday archives for some family-favorite chili recipes! 

As soon as the air gets cooler and the leaves start to turn color, I find myself looking for an excuse to make a big pot of chili. Whether you're participating in a chili cook-off or looking for an easy way to feed your family on an autumn evening, we've got you covered with meatless chili recipes you can customize to your liking.

Vegan Tempeh Chili

Elizabeth Varga's vegan tempeh chili is a plant-based version of a classic chili recipe. Instead of using ground beef, we'll use a crumbled block of tempeh for some extra protein and texture. The result: a vegetarian chili that is packed with flavor!

Sweet Potato Chili

Jasmine Kuzner's sweet potato chili recipe is great for large parties. One batch makes enough to feed 8 to 10 people. Serve with salsa and guacamole and chips or use it as the main filling in crunchy corn taco shells.

Southwest-style Chili Mac

If you're looking for a one-pot meal the whole family can enjoy, try Monica Portogallo's Southwest-style Chili Mac.

Slow-Cooker Vegan Chili

Janelle Peregoy shares a vegan chili recipe that's easy to make in the slow cooker - perfect for busy days!

3-Bean Chili Mac

I think this was only three-bean chili because I only had 3 varieties of beans in the pantry. Use your imagination; this will feed about 10 people.
