Pumpkin Chili

This is a really filling, affordable, delicious meal! The leftovers can be used in so many ways (if you have any leftover!) so it’s also versatile!

Ingredients

2 medium bell peppers, chopped
3 small onions, chopped
3 medium stalks of celery , chopped
1 Tbsp chili powder
1 Tbsp ground cumin
1 1/2 cups canned pumpkin
1 cup fire roasted diced tomatoes
15 oz canned kidney beans, drained and rinsed
15 oz canned black beans
28 oz canned diced tomatoes
29 oz canned tomato sauce
6 cloves of garlic, minced
1 cup cilantro, chopped
kosher salt
freshly ground black pepper

Garnishes

Avocado tossed with kosher salt and lime juice
Corn tortillas baked in the oven until crispy
2% Shredded sharp cheddar
Light sour cream
Chopped cilantro
Diced red onion

Directions
In a large pot on high heat, add your celery, bell pepper, onion, garlic, ground cumin, chili powder, kosher salt, and freshly ground black pepper. Cook until the vegetables are softened, approx five minutes.

Then add everything else except for the cilantro. Add more kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to season the new additions. Simmer on a medium heat for around twenty minutes, stirring often. Add your cilantro, and simmer for another five minutes. Then it’s ready to serve!

Each serving is 1cup and this makes 11 servings. For those doing WeightWatchers, it’s 2pts per serving. If you omit the garnish of shredded cheese, this dish is also vegan! Hope you all enjoy!

Personal

Fought for a VBAC and lost
"She proceeded to make the comment “I know the situation, and because of that I’m not feeling sympathetic” in reference to Sarah leaving the hospital AMA and not accepting a repeat c-section previously, and to the massive amounts of pain she was in."
Vent - VBAC Scare Tactics
"He then recanted and said, “well maybe it’s not a law, but I’ll tell you NO hospital will ALLOW you to VBAC without it”. Right ok, so first fear tactic and lie."
I had TWO c-sections
"It’s hard because sometimes I almost feel shame or guilt that BOTH of my c-sections were medically needed."
Who Am I?
"I went from a victim, a weak worthless nothing to a MOTHER. I went from being a punching bag to a protector and then lost myself yet again."
