Can this be reheated?
This is one of my favorite chili recipes! Love the OJ and kale!
What a fantastic recipe, I added garlic, used black and pinto beans( just because I didn’t have kidney beans) used Japanese sweet potatoes, and only 1 1/2 cups of orange juice. Topped with avocado and vegan cheddar cheese, amazing.
I was pleasantly surprised. I think the orange juice might be the secret ingredient. I will make again.
This is one of my favorite all time recipes. I have never had anyone not love it, plant based or not. It’s a great dish to introduce people to a vegan food.
Love it!
This was not for me. I found the orange juice and smoked paprika to be far too overpowering. I wont make this again but if I did, I would omit most – if not all – the OJ and saute the pepper and onion in oil with some garlic.
