As you can imagine, I have a LOT of Vegan cookbooks. One of my favorites is The Vegan Table by Colleen Patrick-Godreau. She has a ton of recipes that inspire me, give me ideas and are pretty easy to follow. One of my absolute favorites is the book’s recipe for Three Bean Chili, so I thought I would share it with you. I love to serve it with some nice brown rice (seen above). The type of rice that takes 25-30 minutes to cook. So here it is, but remember, all the credit goes to Colleen and her book The Vegan Table for this awesome recipe! You can also check out our friends over at The Vegan Crew and their post about this awesome dish back in 2010 by clicking HERE
