I made this yesterday, with a few changes. I left out the bell pepper on accident, and I left out the cabbage intentionally. I used squash instead of pumpkin and sweet potatoes instead of regular potatoes. Also, I served it with sour cream. Came out beautifully; cooked 10 hours on low. Thanks for posting.
