Caribbean Tasting Stewp

So delicious!
Very filling!
Too stewy to call a soup. But too liquidy to call a stew. Definitely will repeat this one!

Ingredients:

2 yellow onions
2 cloves garlic
Tablespoon or 2 of peanut oil
1 Knorr veggie boullion cube
Frozen spinach (2 handfuls?)
1 can and fire roasted tomatoes with green chilis
1 can chick peas
1 can white beans
1 can cut green beans
salt
pepper
garlic powder
hot pepper
oregano
thyme
about 2 T tahini
little less than 2 T Ghiardhelli unsweetened cocoa
a little cinaommon (1/2 teaspoon?)
Bulgur - optional
1 can coconut milk - optional

Directions:

Soften the onions and garlic in the peanut oil
Then remove lid and continue cooking until golden

In the meantime, half-fill soup pot with water and add the bouillion cube
Throw in the spinach
Add the can of diced tomatoes
salt
pepper
Then add the onions/garlic
And the chick peas, white beans, and cut green beans
Now add the garlic powder, hot pepper, oregano, thyme, tahini, cocoa, and cinammom

Bring to a full boil

Then lower to simmer.
Simmer, lid askew, for 1 hour and 45 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes.

Last, IF DESIRED (it's good before this too!):
Add the bulgur (two handfuls?)
And the can of coconut milk
Stir
Continue cooking on simmer with lid askew for 20 minutes.
