Yield: Serves 8-10 
Time: 45 minutes (less if you brown your meat and chop your veggies earlier in the day)

2 1/2 c cooked, ground turkey
1 c onion, chopped
1 1/2 c yellow bell pepper, chopped
2 Tbls coconut oil
2 tsp ground cumin
1 1/2 tsp oregano
2 tsp ancho chili powder
2 boxes (or 15 oz cans) black beans, drained and rinsed
1 and 3/4 boxed (or 15 oz cans) pumpkin puree (that's 1 full box/can plus 3/4th of another)
1 box (or 15 oz can) diced tomatoes
3 c chicken broth to taste
salt and pepper to taste
dash of cinnamon to taste
dash of red pepper flakes to taste

Brown your meat if you haven't already done so.

In oil, saute your onion and pepper till soft.  Stir in spices and cook for about 1 minute to release fragrances. Add all remaining ingredients and heat through.  Taste test your spices.  We prefer a little more cinnamon than most:)
