Black Bean -n- Pumpkin Chili

I found this recipe in my latest Taste of Home magazine. The original recipe is listed on their web site, you can find it here:  Taste of Home Black Bean-n-Pumpkin Chili recipe

I changed it up a little.  This is my "veggie" version.

Ingredients:

• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 medium onion, chopped
• 1 medium sweet yellow pepper, chopped
• 3 garlic cloves, minced
• 3 cups veggie broth
• 2 cans (15 ounces each) black beans, rinsed and drained
•  vegetarian chicken
• 1 can (15 ounces) solid-pack pumpkin
• 1 can (14-1/2 ounces) diced tomatoes with chiles, undrained
• 2 teaspoons dried parsley flakes
• 2 teaspoons chili powder
• 1-1/2 teaspoons dried oregano
• 1-1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
• 1/2 teaspoon salt 
• 1 can corn, drained
• 2 jalapeno peppers seeded and chopped, optional

 Directions:

In a large skillet, saute the onion, yellow pepper in oil until tender. Add garlic; cook 1 minute longer.

Transfer to a 5-quart slow cooker; stir in the remaining ingredients. Cover and cook on low for 4-5 hours or until heated through.

Enjoy! Excellent chili, very healthy and you don't taste the pumpkin in it at all.  A new favorite at our house!
