1 T canola oil
1 large onion, chopped, about 1 cup
1 jalapeno, chopped (optional)
1 large (about 6 ounces) sweet potato, peeled if desired and chopped
2 T ground cumin
1 T chili flakes
2 T dark chili powder
1 T hot or smoked paprika
1 t dried oregano
2 T tomato paste, no salt added
1 (14.5-ounce) can kidney beans, drained and rinsed
1 (14.5-ounce) can pinto beans, drained and rinsed
2 (14.5-ounce) cans petite diced tomatoes, no salt added
2 cups reduced-sodium vegetable broth
1 t Marmite or Vegemite
juice of one lemon, about 3 tablespoons
salt and pepper to taste
Note: Vegemite and Marmite are yeast extracts from Australia and the UK, respectively, that add an incredibly deep, rich flavor to any dish. They taste like a cross between miso and soy sauce, only a little less salty. You could swap miso or a teaspoon of low-sodium soy sauce.
