     1 medium yellow onion, chopped
     1 red or green bell pepper, chopped

     4 cloves garlic, minced
     spices: 3 tablespoon chili powder, 1 tablespoon ground cumin, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
     1 large sweet potato, peeled and chopped into ½ inch cubes
     2 28oz (794g) cans diced tomatoes, with juices
     1 15 oz (425g) can black beans, drained and rinsed
     1 15 oz (425g) can kidney beans, drained and rinsed

     1 tablespoon olive oil
    1

    If making tofu crumble, preheat oven to 350F/180C and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a bowl, whisk together sauce ingredients and crumble tofu with your fingers into bowl, mixing until coated. Spread tofu onto pan and bake for 45 minutes, stirring halfway, until browned and chewy.

    2

    For chili: using the SAUTE function on the Instant Pot, heat oil and add chopped onion, bell pepper, and celery. Sauté for 2-3 minutes, until fragrant, then add in garlic and spices and cook for an additional minute.

    3

    Add the rest of the ingredients, secure the lid, set vent for SEALING and cook on MANUAL high pressure for 10 minutes.

    4

    Wait for the pot to natural release (about 10 minutes), then open lid and add in tofu crumbles. Stir to combine and close lid for another 5 minutes. Season to taste and serve immediately.
