Veggie Packed Chilli
with Brown Rice
Bright, healthy, delicious. Not only is this veggie chilli on the table in 20 minutes flat, it is also bursting with ingredients that will nourish you from the inside out. Piled high over brown rice and served with a dollop of zesty sour cream (Chef Mimi’s favourite!), freshly chopped coriander and a good squeeze of lime, you can’t go wrong with this brilliant weeknight recipe.
Boxes and ingredients are packed in facilities that handles Peanut, Nuts, Sesame, Fish, Crustaceans, Milk, Egg, Mustard, Celery, Soya, Gluten and Sulphites. Due to the war in Ukraine, it has been necessary to substitute sunflower oil with rapeseed oil in some products without a label change. The FSA have advised that allergic reactions to rapeseed oil are rare.
