Nothing screams “Fall” like Pumpkin and warm soup by the fireplace. Adapted from Thug Kitchen’s Vegan Pumpkin Chili recipe, this recipe is adapted to be gluten free & allergy friendly thanks to our board president, Alicia Poole!
The recipe below is Vegan, Gluten Free and Free-From top allergens (minus the optional tamari, which contains soy) but always check labels on the products you use! We paired ours with Every Body Eat‘s GF & Allergy-Friendly snack thins, but you can top it with anything from cilantro to fresh avocado.
