Chili Powder

Chili powder is made from grinding dried chili peppers. It is a major seasoning in chili, which gets it name from these peppers, and in other Mexican style recipes. The chili powders we have used are generally on the low “heat” side, and require additional hot pepper (cayenne) to increase the spiciness and “heat”. Chili powder is very high in vitamin A. See the nutritional chart below.

Some background information:

Over the years, people have been asking us, “What do vegans eat?” This is probably because they first think about a flesh product as the main meal, and then think about everything else as a side dish. So, we began publishing the huge variety of plant foods that are available for us to eat in this section of our web site. Additionally, we are always on the lookout for something new to add to our collection and experiment with to incorporate into our meals. We have also found that eating mostly unprocessed plant foods make us much more healthy.
