  • 1 medium yellow onion diced
  • 3 garlic cloves minced
  • 2 cans 15 oz each white beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 cup vegan chicken strips
  • 1 cup vegetable broth
  • 1 cup canned coconut milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 lime squeezed

For Coffee-Caramel Truffles:

  • 1/2 cup vegan butter
  • 1/3 cup brewed strong coffee
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/2 cup vegan dark chocolate chips melted
  • 1/3 cup vegan caramel sauce

Instructions
 

White Chicken Chili:

  • Warm olive oil in a large pot and sauté diced onion until golden and smelling better than your candle collection.
  • Stir in minced garlic, cumin, chili powder, and paprika, cooking until fragrant enough to summon jealous neighbors.
  • Toss in white beans, vegan chicken, broth, and coconut milk; stir like you mean it.
  • Let it all simmer for 35 minutes, stirring occasionally while dramatically flipping your hair.
  • Squeeze in fresh lime juice and season with salt and pepper before serving hot and with attitude.

Coffee-Caramel Truffles:

  • Beat vegan butter with brewed coffee until creamy and making you question why you ever bought store-bought sweets.
  • Whisk in powdered sugar until smooth, then fold in melted chocolate like you’re hiding secrets.
  • Chill the mixture until firm enough to handle without calling for backup.
  • Roll into bite-sized balls and stuff each with a dollop of vegan caramel because you're an overachiever.
  • Chill again until ready to serve, preferably hidden from snack thieves.
