I made this recipe and loved it! You don't miss the meat at all.

Sweet Potato and Black Bean Chili

1 tbsp olive oil
1 med/large sweet potato, peeled and diced
1 large onion, diced
4 cloves of garlic, minced
2 tbsp chili powder
4 tsps ground cumin
1/2 tsp ground chipotle chile
1/4 tsp salt
2 1/2 cups water
2 cans of black beans, rinced and drained
1 14 oz can of diced tomatoes
4 tsps lime juice
1/2 cups chopped fresh cilantro

Saute the sweet potatoe and onion in the oil until soft. Add spices, water, beans and tomatoes and bring to a boil. Turn down and simmer until potato is cooked. Stir in lime juice and cilantro. Serve.

The recipe came from Eating Well magazine.

Looks yummy. Some squash might be good to replace the sweet potato; I got some to use up - might try it. Thanks PB!

looks interesting and my sister is a vegetarian. I do a normal black bean chilli for her sometimes but the addition of sweet potato is interesting.
