A giant pot of comfort food is how I'd describe this white bean chili, with a slight spicy kick to keep up the heat! Loaded with beans and vegetarian chorizo sausage, it's the perfect game day food!
It's so nice to start a fresh year in the world of food blogging, because with it comes a whole new bunch of awesome food days! January is hot for sports recipes and that means tasty over-the-top eats.
Buffalo chicken wings are probably the number one snack to eat for game day, but chili is also high up there. Why can't we combine the two?
Of course, we can, that's how I ended up making this Buffalo White Bean Chili with Vegetarian Chorizo Sausages. Just knock this chili out in less than an hour, leave it on the stovetop and let your football fans scoop it up bowl after bowl.
It's thick with two kinds of beans, celery, carrots, tomatoes and chunks of Chorizo Smart Sausage from Lightlife. The sausage is a nice change from traditional ground beef and it packs a punch in the flavor zone.
Each sausage is made from plant protein making it perfect for vegetarians. It'll also help keep your saturated fats and cholesterol levels at a decent level.
Between the sausage and the beans, you're well on your way to blowing away your daily protein goals. Throw in some Frank's Red Hot Sauce for that awesome buffalo flavor everyone loves and you're set!
Keep some of the buffalo sauce handy because you know there's going to be someone who prefers it mega hot and spicy. All they have to do is add more sauce, I kept it pretty mild but you'll still feel a light kick in the back of your throat after a few spoonfuls.
Whatever you do for game day, make sure you have plenty of food, maybe a few ice cold beers and the biggest big screen television you can get your hands on! Sit back, relax and load up on Buffalo White bean Chili!
