Best Ever Vegan Chili

"Tips and Tricks for making the perfect vegan chili: This recipe allows for a lot of variation. While I recommend it as it is written, the bulgur wheat can be substituted for couscous, lentils, or a meat-free alternative for a gluten-free option. Consider adding 1 teaspoon of liquid smoke for a smokier chili. This chili should be eaten immediately. Top with fresh cilantro, lime, avocado, and vegan sour cream. Uneaten chili can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or frozen for 1 month. To thaw, place it in the refrigerator the night before. The following day, gently reheat the chili over the stovetop."
