This fiber-packed dish is the perfect plant-based meal for cooler days, or any time you’re craving a warm bowl of nourishment! Just 1 pot and 30 minutes required! This hearty, 1-pot black bean chili begins with a naturally sweet and savory base of sautéed onion, bell pepper, and garlic. Then we add cumin, smoked paprika, and chipotle peppers in adobo sauce for serious smokiness and flavor. Salt enhances it all. Next come canned black beans to make this super easy and weeknight-friendly, but you could also make a batch of homemade beans in the Instant Pot and then use them in this recipe. After a quick simmer to infuse the beans with flavor, dinner is served! We hope you LOVE this chipotle black bean chili! It’s:HeartyNourishingSmokySatisfyingSubtly spicy& Perfect for chilly (chili 😉) weather! We love it as an easy weeknight meal, freezer staple, and delicious way to meet fiber goals (20+ grams fiber per serving!). This chili is delicious on its own, in our Smoky Black Bean & Quinoa Chili Bowl, or topped with cashew cream (or jalapeño cashew sauce) for cheesiness, tortilla chips or strips for crunch, diced avocado for richness, and cilantro for freshness.
