Who this list is for

This recipe and grocery list is for anyone making a hearty vegan cornbread chili casserole to serve eight people. It’s ideal for family dinners, potlucks, or meal prepping for a group. If you want a filling, plant-based main dish that bakes in a 9-by-13-inch pan and feeds a crowd, this list fits your needs.

How to use this list

Start by scanning your pantry and fridge for items you already have, like olive oil, cornmeal, or canned beans. Use this list to shop for missing ingredients. The recipe calls for sautéing onion, peppers, and garlic, then building a chili with canned kidney beans, black beans, crushed tomatoes, and frozen corn. The cornbread topping uses cornmeal, flour, baking powder, soy milk, and maple syrup. Gather all ingredients before beginning, and prep your vegetables ahead for smoother assembly.

Don’t substitute sweetened plant milk for the unsweetened soy milk—the cornbread will turn out too sweet. Avoid using chili beans in sauce; plain canned beans work best. Skipping the baking powder in the cornbread layer will leave it dense. Don’t forget to drain and rinse the beans, or the casserole may turn out watery. Double-check your baking dish size; a smaller pan will cause overflow.

You’ll need olive oil, a large yellow onion, both red and green bell peppers, and four garlic cloves.
