Keto Vegan Walnut Chili

Keto Recipes > Keto Dinner Recipes

Winter is here and I love making warm dishes! Chili is one of my favorite meals to enjoy when it is cold out, but I wanted to make it vegetarian/vegan friendly so almost anyone can enjoy it! (except individuals with nut allergy’s).

As the name suggests, this vegan walnut chili is packed with walnuts, which are rich in antioxidants and are packed with omega-3 fatty acids. Walnuts are also good for brain function and a healthy gut. Enjoy this vegan keto walnut chili, knowing it is packed with some great nutrients!
