Reddit mentions: The best chorizon sausage

Slow Cooker Soy Chorizo Chili

See full recipe with additional stovetop instructions at https://veggiechick.com/soy-chorizo-chili/

​

• 2 (15-ounce) cans diced tomatoes (Sometimes I might use flavored cans of diced tomatoes, such as “Garlic and Olive Oil”, “Fire Roasted”, etc.)
  
• 1 (15-ounce) can organic tomato sauce
  
• 1 medium white or yellow onion, diced
  
• 1 (4.5-ounce) can green chiles
  
• 1 (15-ounce) can chickpeas, rinsed and drained
  
• 1 (15-ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
  
• 1 (15-ounce) can sweet corn (no need to drain)
  
• 15 cherry tomatoes, halved 
  
• 1 medium green bell pepper, diced
  
• 1/2 package (6-ounces) Soy Chorizo, casing/outer wrapper removed*, I prefer Trader Joe’s brand but you can use other brands of Soy Chorizo.
  
• 4 garlic cloves, minced
  
• 2 teaspoons chili powder
  
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika, or regular paprika
  
• 1 teaspoon cumin
  
• 1 cup water
  
  Optional Toppings:
  
  
• crackers
  
• chopped cilantro
  
• vegan sour cream
  
  

  INSTRUCTIONS
  

  
  

1. In a slow cooker, add all ingredients (the order doesn’t matter) and stir. Important: be sure to remove the outer casing of the chorizo before adding to the slow cooker. Cover and cook on high for 4-5 hours or low for 6-7 hours. When ready, scoop out into a bowl and enjoy! Add crackers, chopped cilantro or even some vegan sour cream. Store this chili in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.
   
2. Note: you can also cook this on your stovetop. See stovetop instructions in the Notes section below. 
   
   

   NOTES
   

   
   

• *I use only 1/2 of the 12-ounce Soy Chorizo package, as it’s very spicy and also high in sodium. If you want to add more, you can taste it when it’s almost done cooking and add more if necessary. The soy chorizo should be already cooked (check the package to make sure), so it’s ok to add in at the end of the cooking process. Or, use the remaining chorizo in other recipes, such as a topping for this Spicy Baked Potato with Broccoli and Vegan Queso recipe. 
  
• This recipe makes a lot of chili, around 13 cups total, so you’ll have plenty for leftovers during the week.
  
• If you can’t find Soy Chorizo, you can make it without. But if you do, be sure to double (or triple) up on the spices, as the soy chorizo adds a lot of flavor.

You can see that the vendor has helpfully provided a cross-section view of their product, which should look pretty familiar :)

It's really good. My girlfriend was born/raised in Mexico and she loves it (and she's extremely picky about "Mexican" food up here in the US).

I think this brand is the best, it's a normal chorizo brand (makes pork and beef chorizo) that also happens to make a soy one, so it's spiced traditionally. In my experience it's the only soy chorizo that Mexican markets actually carry. The texture is on point, we make lots of stuff out of it.

Trader Joes has one but it isn't spiced traditionally, it almost tastes a bit like curry powder.

Ingredients:

Tortillas

1 package of tofu

red chili flakes

salt to taste

1 large sweet potato

vegan sausage: https://www.amazon.com/El-Burrito-Soyrizo-12-Pack/dp/B075RSHDKJ

1 can of black beans

Hot sauce or BBQ sauce

assorted veggie: I like mushrooms, onions and bell peppers.

Yields: 10 burritos

Freeze for grab and go or for camping!

I've been buying these. Palacios Spanish Hot Picante Chorizo 7.9 Ounce. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000BTHHGU/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_QGTIDbWDHES46 it's my new go to for camping. I've had the misfortune of attempting a few varieties from the coolers of Walmart and the usual jokes about strange parts of animals being in hotdogs are true when it comes to gelatinous tubes of "meaty" chorizo
