In a large non-stick pot, add the onion and cook over medium high heat, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes. Add 1/4 cup water if needed to avoid sticking. Add the zucchini, carrots, peppers and garlic. Cook for an additional 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Add the peeled tomatoes, breaking up with a spoon. Add the tomato sauce, chili powder, cinnamon, salt, sugar and allspice. Stir to combine. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to low and cover. Cook for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the beans and cook for an additional 15 minutes.
Cook the pasta following package directions.
Serve the chili over the cooked pasta. Garnish with the shredded cheese, oyster crackers and green onions
