Equipment

  • Instant Pot

Ingredients

  • 6 cans mixed beans pinto, cannellini, great northern and red kidney
  • 1 ½ cups BBQ sauce
  • 1 ½ cups maple syrup
  • 1 garlic bulb peeled and sliced
  • 3 large onions chopped Vidalia and red
  • 1 ½ tsp dry mustard
  • ½ tsp cayenne
  • ½ tsp paprika
  • ½ tsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp onion salt
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 4 Beyond Meat Hot Italian Sausages cook in skillet on medium high heat for 6 minutes. After cooled, slice into chunks.
  • 2 tbsp *Avocado oil for cooking onions and garlic

Instructions

  • Rinse and drain the canned beans.
  • Using the sauté function on your Instant Pot, heat avocado oil until shimmering.
  • Add onion and sauté about 3-5 minutes, until starting to soften and brown.
  • Add garlic and sauté a couple more minutes, stirring occasionally to avoid scorching.
  • Turn the Sauté function off on the Instant Pot.
  • Add the beans, BBQ sauce, maple syrup and 6 spices into the pot, folding them together gently.
  • Secure the lid on the Instant Pot, select High Pressure for 10 minutes and hit start. Watch it closely so it doesn't burn.
  • While the chili is cooking, cut up the sausage and cook it on medium high heat for 5-6 minutes in a skillet with avocado oil. Set aside and add to the chili when it's done.
  • When done, make sure the pressure valve is down and the steam is released before opening.
  • Open the lid and add the cooked Beyond Meat Sausages to the hot chili.
  • Enjoy your big pot of plantbased chili!

Notes

Note: Keep an eye on the Instant Pot while cooking the Chili.  It can get hot very quick and doesn’t always need the 10 minutes on High Pressure.  You can always shut it off and unplug it early if it does over heat. 
If you have the time, you can use dried beans, soak them over night, rinse and then cook them.
Enjoy the beans with wild rice, small golden or red baked potatoes, or with a plate of greens and chips.

Since it's so versatile and easy to transport, Muesli makes the best treat to have at work, take it with you on the road or just enjoy it as a meal with a variety of toppings. Put it in a mason jar, screw on the lid, and take it with you! Oats are very satisfying and this snack can keep you full for hours. The end result is a lightly sweetened, slightly crunchy muesli. Try it with cold oat milk, or heat it up together with the milk to create a hot cereal. The add ons are endless from coconut yogurt to dried fruit, fresh fruit or seeds. I love the texture, flavors, flexibility and creativity in this delicious muesli!

These spicy spud balls are packed full of flavor with fresh herbs, spices, oats and red potatoes. They are incredibly delicious and nutritious with a nice crunchy outside. I've made many versions of balls and burgers using beans and grains but never potatoes. So why not try it! I can honestly say they were way better than I'd expected them to be and a big hit with my taste tester. We enjoyed eating them with pasta, salad and just by themselves with sauce.
