Thai Veggie Chili
by Melanie Foster
serves: 5
  Adapted from Clean Eating Magazine. This is great even if you aren't vegetarian and it's great made ahead and frozen for busy people.
Ingredients:
  1   sweet potato, cubed (about 2 cups)
  1   large bell pepper, any color, chopped
  1 1/2 tsp   red curry paste
  1 tsp   cumin
  4 cups   vegetable broth
  1/2 cup   uncooked bulgur
  2 cups   canned or boxed tomato puree (1 can)
  1 bunch   green onions
  2 cans   red kidney beans
  1/2 cup   light coconut milk
Directions:
  In a big pot over medium-high heat stir together the sweet potato, bell pepper, curry paste and cumin. Gradually add broth, stirring to dissolve the curry paste. Add bulgur, tomato puree and onions. Bring to a boil then reduce heat to a simmer and cook uncovered about 10 minutes or until sweet potato is tender.

Drain and rinse the kidney beans. Add beans and coconut milk and stir well. Add salt and pepper to taste. Keep cooking about 10 more minutes until bulgur is tender and chili is nice and thick.

Garnish with some extra chopped green onion tops if desired.
