Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
Add the diced onion and cook until it becomes translucent, about 5 minutes.
Stir in the garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
Add the diced red and yellow bell peppers, carrot, zucchini, and sweet potato to the pot. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until the vegetables begin to soften.
Stir in the crushed tomatoes, vegetable broth, and tomato paste.
Add the chili powder, cumin, paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to incorporate the spices into the mixture.
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover the pot and let it simmer for 30-35 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Once the chili has thickened and the vegetables are tender, remove from heat.
Serve hot, garnished with fresh cilantro and sliced avocado.
