Wheat-Based Protein | Vegan | Soy-Free

When your day’s been long but your standards are still high, this cozy, protein-packed chili has your back. Made with real, whole ingredients—including refried pinto beans, veggies, and a flavorful blend of spices—plus plant-based wheat protein shreds for that “mmm, what is this?” texture. Just add water and simmer. Ten minutes later, you’ve got dinner.

Each pouch makes 2 generous or 4 smaller servings. Want to stretch it further? Toss in a can of beans, sautéed onions, corn, or whatever’s hanging out in your fridge. Pile it on a baked potato, wrap it into tacos, or make a haystack (Midwestern taco salad, but make it plant-based chic).

No soy. No meat. No nonsense. Just real, good food that hits the spot.
