  6. Add the Chik’n Scallopini, stir, and allow the chili to simmer (covered) for about 15 minutes.
  7. Turn off the heat, and add in the vegan mozzarella. Stir until well blended.
  8. Add salt and pepper to taste.
  9. Serve, and top with vegan sour cream, avocado, toritlla chips, and green onions.

Notes

This recipe can be made spicy with the cayenne pepper listed below, but I remove the cayenne pepper for my kids.The recipe also calls for mild canned green chilis, but since I leave out the cayenne pepper, I like doing one can of mild and one can of hot green chiles. I like this brand, which you can get on Amazon.

I like Kitehill Foods plant-based mozzarella for this recipe.
