- Top with lettuce, avocado, salsa (and optional ingredients)
- If you want to make the chili more hearty add in the following steps:
- Place a skillet on med heat.
- Add a tbsp or less of safflower oil.
- Add 1 veggie burger for each person.
- Heat the veggie burger and break it apart with a fork or spatula until it is golden brown (and looks similar to ground beef).
