Classic Vegan Instant Pot Chili

I'm a huge fan of chili!  If you're a long time reader, you may recall that I have several variations of chili published here.

Sweet Potato Chili
Hearty Harvest Chili
Vegan Green Chili
Vegan Cincinnati Chili

This chili is classic style, with beans. I used TVP for the ground meat. It's a little saucy and has red kidney beans. I cooked this in my instant pot and it came together really quickly.
