  beans and lots of plant-based cheese. A kid-friendly comfort food
  dinner!
  
  Heat olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add
  onion, garlic, carrot, red bell pepper, and chili pepper. Cook for 4
  to 5 minutes until softened. Stir in the vegan crumble and cook for
  another 3 minutes to lightly brown.
  
  Add chili powder, cumin, oregano, black pepper, sea salt, and
  cayenne. Stir and cook for 1 minute to bloom the spices.
  
  Pour in the diced tomatoes (with liquid), red beans, corn, and
  vegetable broth. Stir well.
  
  Stir in the elbow macaroni. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to
  medium-low, cover, and simmer for 12 to 15 minutes, stirring
  occasionally, until pasta is cooked al dente and most liquid is
  absorbed. Add more broth if needed to prevent sticking.
  
  Once pasta is tender, stir in shredded vegan cheese until melted and
  creamy. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
  
  Ladle into bowls and top with fresh cilantro.
