I was craving Chicken Chili and since I no longer eat meat I knew I had to be creative. I decided to try my hand using Vegan Chicken chunks! To my surprise my recipe was amazing and my family loved it too. The carrots added just enough sweetness. The Greek Seasoning adds a hint of lemon flavor and oregano. My family couldn't tell the difference with the Vegan Chicken Chunks. I recommend using the Quorn brand because the texture and flavor is the closest to eating real chicken. I hope you enjoy ever how you like with vegan products or real dairy this is a amazing chili! Ingredients:
