Ingredients
  

  • 1 Tbls Olive Oil
  • 2 medium Tomatoes chopped
  • 1 small Onion chopped
  • 2 Garlic cloves minced
  • 1 25 oz can of whole peeled Tomatoes, drained and chopped. I use Cento
  • 1 15 oz can of Pumpkin Puree

  • 1 tsp Cinnamon
  • ½ tsp Pumpkin Pie Spice
  • ½ - 1 tsp Crushed Red Pepper Chili flakes or to taste

Method
 

  1. In a saute pan, heat Olive Oil over medium heat. Add chopped fresh Tomatoes, Onions and Garlic and saute until onions start to turn translucent.
  2. Add in the drained, chopped (canned) Tomatoes, Pumpkin puree, Salt, Sugar, chopped Jalapenos and remaining spices.
  3. Cook for 8 - 10 minutes. Set aside to cool. Store in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.

Notes

You can also add a small handful of fresh chopped Cilantro if you like, I personally like to sprinkle the fresh Cilantro over my taco instead.
