Chili is an all-American classic with Latin American roots. Every household has its own favorite recipe, and each thinks theirs is the best. While we are not here to argue, we’d like to throw this hearty vegan chili recipe in for a vote. If you want to adjust the spiciness of this recipe, use a little more or a little less cayenne pepper to suit your palate.

Ingredients
- 1 large yellow onion, chopped
- 8 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon cumin seed, toasted and ground
- 2 tablespoons ancho chile powder

- 2 (28-ounce) cans diced tomatoes

Instructions
