Worried about fat? Almost all of it comes from avocado, which is considered a healthy fat. Of course, you can always skip if it’s a better way to meet your health goals!
For more delicious toppings, you can toss in your favorite brand of vegan cheese or sour cream. If you don’t mind dairy, you can certainly use standard cheese or sour cream for your meatless chili!
