- Stir in 2 1/2 cups vegetable broth, tomatoes, fresh corn (if using frozen corn wait until the point where you add the black beans to add the frozen corn) ancho chili powder, cumin and season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Bring to a light boil then reduce heat to low, cover and allow to simmer 10 minutes. Stir in black beans, cover and simmer 5 minutes longer.
- Gently toss in sweet potatoes and allow to just warm through (if they've cooled), about 1 - 2 minutes. Thin with an additional broth if desired. Serve with desired toppings.
