The Best Vegan Chili Recipe Ever (Yes, Really)

Press tofu to remove excess moisture and cut into cubes.

Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.

Add diced vegetables and sauté until softened, about 5-7 minutes.

Stir in the cubed tofu and cook for another 5 minutes.

Add mixed beans, diced tomatoes, vegetable broth, chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper if using.

Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat and let it simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.

Serve hot, garnished with fresh cilantro.
