Instructions

  1. Heat the oil in the bottom of the slow cooker over a medium high heat if you have a sear-and-stew model, or in a large skillet or frying pan. Add the onions and bell peppers, and cook until the onions are just starting to soften.
  2. Add the sweet potato, and continue to cook until the onions have some color on them, and the peppers and sweet potato have started to soften.
  3. Transfer the mixture to the slow cooker if you’re using a different pan. 
  4. Stir in the beans, tomatoes, cajun seasoning, tomato paste, cocoa powder, salt and spices. Wash the leftover tomato juices out of the can and add them to the chili with a scant 1/4 cup of water. (If you have vegetable broth open in the refrigerator, use that instead.)
  5. Cook for 4 hours on high, or 6 hours on low. Check to see if more salt is needed before serving.
