Add the diced pumpkin, capsicums, mushrooms, carrots, potatoes, lentils, split peas, and vegetable stock to the pot. Cover and let it cook for about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Turn off the heat, then add the soy milk and black pepper. Stir well to combine. Taste and adjust the salt as needed.
