1 can (28 ounces) fire roasted diced tomatoes

Directions

Heat the oil in a large Dutch oven over medium high heat; add celery, onion and bell pepper. Cook, stirring, until vegetables soften, about 3 minutes. Add garlic; cook, stirring, 1 minute.
Stir in chipotle peppers, tomatoes, black and cannellini beans, vegetable broth, Grape-Nuts cereal, chili powder, cumin, oregano, salt, thyme, red pepper flakes and black pepper to taste.
Heat to a boil over medium-high heat; lower heat to a simmer. Cover; cook, stirring occasionally, 20 minutes.
