The Spicy Spatula

Today I have a recipe from my Hubs and it is a delicious, comfort food, vegan junk food recipe that is guaranteed to fill your belly, put a smile on your face and keep you coming back for more.

As you all know, I am still on a journey to get to my goal weight which means that most times I will choose a vegan meal that’s calorie and nutrient friendly over something that’s high calorie and full of comfort. Not that I don’t want these foods, because I do. I mean, I didn’t get to be fat because I’m not a fan of food–I’m a big fan–which means re-learning bad food habits that keep me healthy, fit and actively vegan.

This vegan junk food recipe is the perfect vegan comfort food, but it’s a reasonable portion size which means you (or just me) can enjoy it guilt-free.

This recipe is super delicious, fairly easy make and a perfect way to enjoy a Friday night vegan dinner with your loved ones.

These vegan chili cheese fries will hit all the taste points, and hit you with all the toppings so I hope you enjoy this recipe time and time again.
