Equipment

  • Large pot

Ingredients
  

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil extra virgin
  • 1 yellow onion diced
  • 3 bell peppers diced
  • 2 garlic cloves minced
  • 2 tablespoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups vegetable broth
  • 30 oz tomatoes canned, crushed or diced
  • 15 oz pumpkin puree canned
  • 15 oz black beans drained and rinsed
  • 15 oz kidney beans drained and rinsed

Instructions
 

  • Wash and prep all of the vegetables. Combine the olive oil, peppers, and onion in a large pot over medium heat. Sauté for about 10 minutes, stirring frequently.
  • Add all remaining ingredients to the pot. Stir well and bring to a boil. Once it has reached a boil, reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook for an additional 20 minutes.
  • Remove from heat and let cool slightly before serving.

I recommend topping with any or all of the following: cilantro, tortilla strips, vegan sour cream, shredded vegan cheese, jalapeños, and/or corn bread.
