The ingredients for Smoked Pumpkin Chili are:

? 1 medium to large cooking onion, chopped
? 3 large cloves of garlic, chopped
? 2-tsp olive oil
? 2 cans (or one large can) of dark kidney beans, drained and rinsed. (I used 1 can black beans and 1 can great northern. Tasty and colorful!)
? 1 can of low-sodium corn kernels, drained and rinsed
? 1 large (28 ounce) can whole peeled tomatoes, keep the juice
? 1 can pumpkin puree
? 1 cup vegetable broth (or beer of choice)
? 1 tablespoon smoked paprika
? 1 teaspoon black pepper
? 1/2 to 1 teaspoon salt
? 10 to 15 sage leaves (optional)

Here is how you make Smoked Pumpkin Chili:

? In a large saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat and add the onions and garlic. Cook until onions are tender. ? Pour in the pumpkin puree and vegetable broth (or beer). Mix. Pour in the can of whole tomatoes (with the juice). Mix again. ? Then add the kidney beans and corn kernels. Season with the paprika, black pepper, and salt. ? Bring mixture to a boil, stirring occasionally. You'll want to use a spatula or mixing spoon to crush the whole tomatoes a bit. Keep them chunky, but try to crush each one a couple times to distribute evenly. ? Then lower the heat to a simmer and cover. Cook for 45 minutes. Again, stir occasionally. ? Add in the sage leaves (I rubbed mine a bit with my fingers to get the flavor out before dropping into the pot). Cook at a low simmer for another 15 minutes. It made 8 cups when I measured it out after it was done. So I used 1 cup as the serving size to get the calories.Number of Servings: 8Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user HAPPYFEETPI.
