Ingredients

  • 1 pound wagon wheel-shaped pasta
  • 1 15 ounce can great northern beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 14 1/2 ounce can no-salt-added stewed tomatoes
  • 1 10 ounce can mild enchilada sauce (such as Old El Paso)
  • 1 teaspoon hot chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin

Simmer over medium heat for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the soy crumbles and simmer for an additional 3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
