Heat up a splash of water or oil in a large pot over medium heat. Sauté the onion, celery, carrots for 7-8 minutes until the onions are translucent.
Add the minced garlic and all the spices, and cook for an additional 60 seconds.
Reduce the heat to medium low. Add in the dry TVP, black beans, kidney beans, tomatoes, and broth. Cover and simmer for 35-40 minutes, until the vegetables are cooked to your preference.
Taste the chili and adjust the spices if needed. Enjoy on it’s own, or top with vegan cheese, sour cream, green onions, and lime wedges.
