Cuisine: Vegan
Serves: 6
Ingredients
- 1 tbsp olive, avocado or coconut oil
- 1 cooking onion, minced
- 2 ¼ cups water
- 1 tbsp cornstarch
- ¾ cups tomato paste
- ¼-½ tsp cayenne pepper (depending on your tolerance to spice)
- ¼ cup chili powder
- 1 tsp salt + extra to taste
- 2 tsp white vinegar
- 1 jalapeno, de-seeded & chopped (optional)
- 1 can refried beans
- 2 cups veggie ground beef
- 1 cup vegan cheddar-style cheese shreds
- 4-6 large tortillas
Instructions
- Over medium-high heat, heat oil in a medium pan. Add onion and sauté until translucent. This should take about 3-5 mins.
- In a bowl or measuring cup, dissolve the corn starch in the water with a fork.
- Add the cornstarch slurry and tomato paste to the pot with onions and stir, until combined.
- Add cayenne pepper; chili powder, salt, vinegar, and jalapeños, stir.
- Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and mix in the veggie ground beef and refried beans.
- Stir in half of the cheese until melted, and let simmer for 30 minutes, or until thickened.
- Spoon some chili into each tortilla, top with remaining cheese and wrap up the tortilla.
- I like to toast both sides to help them stay together.
- Enjoy! She's a messy one!
