2 medium onions, chopped
6 garlic cloves, coarsely chopped
2 teaspoons olive oil
2 (400 g) cans chopped tomatoes
5 cups vegetable broth
1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce
2 mint tea bags
1 teaspoon chili powder, hot or 1 tablespoon chili powder, mild
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 3/4 teaspoons sea salt
1/8 teaspoon paprika
2 cups finely chopped spinach
3/4 cup smooth peanut butter
6 medium pita bread, toasted

Combine onions, garlic and olive oil in a large stockpot and cook till onions soft.
Stir in tomatoes, broth, tomato sauce, chili powder, cumin, salt, paprika, and let the mint tea seep in at the side. Simmer 10-12 minutes.
Add the spinach and peanut butter and let cook until everything is well combined like another 10 minutes (this is necessary especially if you used frozen spinach - I usually do).
Ladle into bowls and serve with warmed pitas.
