This is the chili everyone talks about that is bold, satisfying, and protein-packed. We started with Inspire Tex-Mex Chili (already loaded with lean soy protein and hearty red beans) and took it up a notch with smart add-ins that make it a meal. Warm, balanced, and ready in minutes this chili fits right into your everyday groove.

 

Ingredients (1–2 servings)
  • 1 packet Inspire Cancun Chili
  • ¾ cup hot water (adjust for preferred thickness)
  • 2 tbsp diced tomatoes or sugar-free salsa
  • 1–2 tbsp diced bell peppers or onions (optional for flavor and texture)
  • 1 tbsp plain nonfat Greek yogurt (for topping: adds creaminess + extra protein)
  • 1 tbsp shredded reduced-fat cheddar or Mexican blend cheese
  • Fresh cilantro, green onions, or a dash of hot sauce (optional)

 

Instructions
  1. In a small pot, mix the Inspire Cancun Chili with ¾ cup hot water. Stir well until smooth.
  2. Bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat for 2–3 minutes.
  3. Stir in diced tomatoes or salsa and any chopped vegetables you like. Heat through another minute.
  4. Pour into a bowl and top with Greek yogurt, shredded cheese, and your favorite garnish.
Pro Tip: For even more protein, stir in 1–2 tablespoons of unflavored Inspire Protein Powder before heating it thickens the chili and gives it a stealthy protein boost without changing the flavor.
