Cooking Steps

Prep
1
  • Before starting, wash and dry all produce.
  • Core, then cut pepper into 1/2-inch pieces.
  • Peel, then cut half the onion (use whole onion for 4 servings) into 1/2-inch pieces.
Cook veggies
2
  • Heat a large pot over medium-high.
  • When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then peppers, onions and corn. Season with salt and pepper. Cook for 4-6 min, stirring often, until tender-crisp and golden.
  • Transfer veggies to a plate.
Start stew
3
  • Reheat the same pot over medium-high. 
  • When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then plant-based ground protein. Season with salt and pepper. Cook for 4-5 min, breaking up into smaller pieces, until cooked through.**
  • Add veggies, Tex-Mex paste, chipotle sauce, beef stock powder and tomato sauce base. Stir to combine.
Finish stew and prep
4
  • Add 1 1/2 cups (2 1/2 cups) water. Bring to a simmer over high. Reduce heat to medium. Cook for 4-7 min, stirring occasionally, until veggies are tender and stew has thickened slightly. (TIP: If you prefer a brothier consistency, add water, 1-2 tbsp at a time.)
  • Meanwhile, open one corner of tortilla chip packet. Using hands or a pot, crush chips until they are 1/2-inch pieces.
Finish and serve
5
  • Season stew with salt and pepper.
  • Divide stew between bowls.
