Vegan Chili Mac & Cheese

This dish is simple, quick, comforting, and so satisfying! All you need is one pot and about 30 minutes.

I think everyone can agree that one-pot meals are wonderful! This dish looks like it would be very complicated to make with all sorts of dishes and multiple timers being used, but all of the ingredients go into one pot and it takes 15 minutes to cook. And the result is always fantastic! It’s cheesy, spicy, creamy, and full of flavors you’d find in classic chili. The leftovers are great all week long, and it’s near the top of my list of go-to crowd pleasers!

Ingredients:

  • 3 cups uncooked macaroni noodles
  • 3 10-oz cans red enchilada sauce
  • 1 cup diced tomatoes
  • 1 1/2 cups low sodium vegetable broth

  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 small yellow onions, minced

  • 1 tsp oregano
  • 1/4 tsp ground sea salt
  • 1/4 tsp ground black pepper
  • 1 cup reduced sodium black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened plant milk

Method:
