VEGAN CHILI BOWL

Prep Time: 20 minutes
Cook Time: 30 minutes
Total Time: 50 minutes
This vegan chili bowl is ideal for a 'mexican' dinner with friends! It is full of gorgeous flavors! I like to eat it with some avocado on top, a dollop of our raw mayo, fresh coriander, spring onions or jalapeno and some lime ! Feel free if you want to cook some extra brown or black rice on the side, for a super comfy dish !
