Ingredients:
  • 1 46 oz. can Tomato Juice
  • 2 15 oz. cans Kidney Beans (rinsed & drained)
  • 1 15 oz. can Pumpkin
  • 8 oz. Tempeh/Smoked Tempeh
  • 1 6 oz. can Tomato Paste
  • 1 Zucchini (shredded)
  • 1 medium Sweet Onion (chopped)
  • 3 cloves of Garlic (minced)
  • 1/4 cup Almond Butter
  • 2 tbsp. Liquid Smoke 
  • 1 tbsp. Chili Powder
  • 1 tbsp. Cumin
  • 2 tsp. Garlic Powder
  • 2 tsp. Onion Powder
  • 1 tsp. Paprika
  • 1 tsp. Sea Salt

Directions:
  1. Turn slow cooker to high to warm up
  2. Add Onion & Garlic and sweat to soften (about 5 minutes)
  3. Rough chop Tempeh and grind into crumbles using a Vitamix or Mini Food Processor
  4. Stir together remaining ingredients (except Spices) into slow cooker
  5. Heat on low for about 6-8 hours, high for about 4 hours
  6. With 2 hours or less to go, add the Spices to prevent them from losing their flavor.

Hoff Thoughts: I enjoy this Chili - Skyline style, served over a generous portion of Whole Wheat Spaghetti!  I used to use V8 Juice in this recipe; but much to my horror, it turns out V8 isn't vegan!
