We love Chili here at Piqualé’s, and it’s one of the easiest meals to make plant based. We loaded this Chili up with plenty of Impossible’s plant based beef, beans and our favorite trick, deglazing the pan with a great Beer. Today we’ve chosen Sierra Nevada’s Torpedo IPA, which brings a nice hop punch from a family-run brewer with a commitment to sustainability.

We could not find the authentic version, so we went with a French Baguette.
For our version, we’ve swapped out the meat for Tofu and included vegan mayo. Aside from that we’ve tried to keep it simple and traditional, making this a quick meal to put together.
