Directions

Heat a large dutch oven or pot over medium heat and add in a splash of water, vegetable broth or cooking oil to coat. Add in the onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until tender and fragrant. Add the garlic and bell pepper and sauté for 2-3 more minutes.
Next add the tomato paste and spices, and a splash of broth or water to deglaze if needed. Stir for 30-60 seconds until the tomato paste has darkened slightly and caramelized. Add the sweet potatoes and stir.
Combine the vegetable bouillon with the water and add to the pot, along with the tomatoes and tomato sauce. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 10-12 minutes until sweet potatoes are tender.
Pour in the black beans, corn, and spinach and heat through. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
