Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Begin by roasting one medium-sized pumpkin, peeled and cubed, with a drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper for about 30 minutes or until tender.

Combine all ingredients in a substantial soup pot: ripe tomatoes, abundant water, judiciously selected seasonings, pungent garlic, fresh corn, and tender beans.
Peel & cut squash (if not already), add to a frying pan on medium heat. Sauté with coconut oil over medium heat for exactly five minutes before introducing finely chopped onions and celery to the pan, allowing their flavors to meld together harmoniously. Continue cooking for an additional 3 to 5 minutes.
Adding the contents of the frying pan to the soup pot, I bring everything to a rolling boil and let it simmer for exactly 10 minutes. I needed to add just a splash more water.
Adjust the heat to a simmer, then cover and allow the dish to slow-cook for approximately one hour; feel free to extend cooking time to achieve desired tenderness.
Season to taste before serving.
