Hawt Toddy is Slutty Vegan’s first-ever chili and it's a hearty and comforting plant-based meal that's made with pieces of Impossible Pork, veggies and warming spices. While both ground beef and pork are popular choices for chili, this plant-based version makes the most of Impossible Pork, the newest meat made from ingredients like soy, coconut oil and sunflower oil, as well as heme, vitamins and minerals.
Erin Reynolds, Vice President of National Food Service Sales at Impossible Foods, said in a statement, "We think it’s a game changer in plant-based comfort food.”
For those who want a way to enjoy the plant-based chili beyond the bowl, Slutty Vegan is offering the Sneaky Link for a limited time so that the hearty vegan chili can be enjoyed over a hot dog.
