Instructions
- Heat oil in a Dutch oven over medium heat. Add onion, peppers, chili powder, ground cumin, and ground coriander. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 5-6 minutes or until onions are translucent.
- Add in the Hodo’s Mexican crumbles and saute for 3-4 minutes.
- Place the remaining ingredients garlic, cocoa powder, chocolate, sweet potatoes, black beans, tomatoes, vegetable broth and salt and pepper. Give it a stir, put the lid on, bring to a boil, turn the heat down to medium-low and simmer for 20-25 minutes or until the sweet potatoes are fully cooked.
- Cook the crumbles: If you are also using the crumbles as a topping, five minutes before you are ready to serve, prepare and sautee the Hodo Adobo Mexican Crumbles seperately. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Remove the crumbles from its packaging and saute, breaking it with a wooden spoon, for 3-4 minutes until it is fully crumbled and cooked.
- Serve: Ladle the chili into bowls. Top each serving with Hodo’s Adobo Mexican Crumbles, avocado cubes, pumpkin seeds, and chopped fresh cilantro. Right before serving, drizzle with a tablespoon of maple syrup and serve with wedges of lime.
