This vegan pumpkin chili can be made in just 30 minutes but has such developed flavors that you'd think it had been simmering for hours. You could easily eat this on its own but serving it over wild rice and adding blanched kale leaves really takes this dish to the next level. Garnish with pumpkin seeds and you’ll be counting down the meals until when you can have this again. The secret ingredient (cinnamon!) really enhances the flavor and kicks up the fall vibes.

How to Prepare Pumpkin Chili With Wild Rice [Vegan, Gluten-Free]

  1. Boil the rice in the vegetable stock, lower the heat, cover and simmer until all the broth is absorbed.
  2. While the rice is cooking, dice your onion and mushrooms and drain and rinse your beans.
  3. In a medium soup pot over medium heat, add your olive oil and sauté your onion until it starts to turn translucent. Add the garlic and stir together.
  4. Add the mushrooms, tomatoes, beans, salt, and tomato paste. Stir to combine and let those flavors cook together for a few minutes.
  5. Turn the heat down just a bit and add the pumpkin and the rest of the spices. Stir to combine and let the chili simmer until you're ready to serve.
  6. In a large pot, bring water to a boil (for blanching your kale). Turn the heat off and then add the kale and boil for 2 minutes. Rinse with cold water.
  7. Serve the rice, top with the chili, kale, and pumpkin seeds.
