  • 1 28- ounce crushed tomatoes canned
  • 1 ounce bittersweet chocolate vegan

Instructions

  1. Chop the onion, garlic, and jalapeño into large chunks. Place in a food processor and pulse until everything is minced. Drain any liquid that may have formed.
  2. Heat a stockpot over medium heat. Add olive oil and onion mixture. Cook until onions are fragrant and transparent, 5 to 6 minutes. Stir in spices and ½ teaspoon salt, cooking for 1 to 2 minutes or until you can smell the spices. Add in the tomatoes, chocolate, and 3 cups of the vegetable broth. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, cover, and let cook for 5 minutes.
  3. After 10 minutes, stir in the pecans and beans. Cover and cook for another 10 to 15 minutes. Taste and adjust the salt/seasoning. Add more vegetable broth if a thinner consistency is desired.
  4. Divide into four bowls and top with your desired toppings.

Notes

  • Tips + Tricks: I realize this is a lot of beans but it's highly worth it. If I don't have any beans in the freezer, I just go for canned beans.
  • As for the cornbread, I used this vegan cornbread recipe.
  • Use up leftover ingredients: Vegetable broth, pecans, spices
