I originally found this recipe typed out on a random Facebook post when I was trying to find a copy cat recipe for chili I had at a tiny diner in Vermont. The recipe was not a copy cat but it seamed to be on the right track so I went for it. The recipe wasn't vegan but it was easy enough to make it so and then I modified the hell out of it so I'm calling this version of it mine! Hope you like it.
This recipe takes about 2 hours & serves 4-6 (my partner & I ate 3 servings each)
1 package of Impossible Burger Ground
1/2 Package of Soyrizo
1 - Medium white onion
Cooking oil for browning meat. I used olive oil.
Granulated onion

Dark chili powder
Garlic powder
Salt
Ground cumin
Cayenne pepper
Black pepper
Paprika
2 cups dried kidney beans (or 1 can)
2 cans Diced Tomatoes with Green Chilies (Original or mild style)
3 - Chipotle peppers in adobo sauce (canned), finely chopped
RECIPE:
Cover dried beans with water (2 inches above the beans) and let boil for 5 minutes.
Remove beans from heat and let sit for 30 minutes.

Step 1:
Put Impossible meat + Soyrizo in a skillet with oil and lightly brown. Add granulated onion while browning.
Coarsely chop white onion and sauté in separate pot (you'll use this one for the chili) in olive oil until golden brown. Remove from heat and set aside.

1 Can (8 oz) Tomato Sauce
1 Cup Beef Broth
Sautéed onions
Beef & Soyrizo
Cook on low for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally very gently. Allow condensation on lid to go back in the pot.
DO NOT combine beans. Leave soaking.

Kidney Beans
3 - finely chopped chipotle peppers in adobo sauce.
Cook for 1 hour, covered, stirring occasionally very gently. Allow condensation on lid to go back in the pot. Try not to let this shit boil very much.
Step 4 - Second Dump:
Combine all ingredients from second dump
½ TBS Light Chili Powder
½ TBS Dark Chili Powder
½ tsp Paprika
½ tsp Ground Cumin
2 - cans Tomatoes with Green Chilies

Serve with any carb of your choice. I love it with corn chips & I'm always loving it with mac & cheese! Crackers, rice, and potatoes are also great options!
