And chili for desert
I'm a horrible cook, and a shtty veg. So here's a nice easy recipe that I used to rely on a lot.

Ingredients

kidney beans
(You can also mix it up with some other beans if you're down with that)

mccormick's chili seasoning
(Or you can look up chili seasonings online and make your own, I just didn't have enough spices)

diced tomatoes

Sweet Onion

Morningstar Crumbles

Ground Red Cayenne Pepper to taste.

Recipe:

Dice the sweet onion and through it in a skillet with the morningstar crumbles till the onions are lightly browned.

In a pot or kettle, combine all the ingredients and cook on Medium Low heat. Should be ready rather quickly, since the meat usually takes the longest to cook...and since we don't have any..

I kind of avoided the "meat replacement" items, because I thought they were silly, but in a recipe like chili, that extra texture and substance is really important. I amazed how much it tasted like my normal chili recipe. In fact, it's completely identical in flavor. It's got lots of protein and it's really filling, so I thought I'd share.

EDIT: You can also work some cheese in there if you want, but that's not really my thing. Also, LOTS of hot sauce.
