Wrap up in a blanket and envelope yourself in the mouth-watering aroma of our lentil chili while it slowly simmers away in your Suvie without any effort required. This chili is not only vegan, but is also simple and delicious with hints of smoke and heat. And to top it all off, it’s incredibly nutritious and filling thanks to brown lentils and kidney beans. For a thicker consistency, mash 1 cup of the cooked mixture and stir back into the chili.
