Instructions

  1. In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
  2. Add onion and sauté, stirring frequently until onion begins to sweat, 5 minutes. Stir in the sweet potato and cook another 5 minutes.
  3. Add the garlic and quinoa and continue cooking another 2 minutes, stirring everything together.
  4. Pour in the remaining ingredients and stir well. Bring chili to a full boil, cover the pot, and reduce the heat to medium-low or low. Allow chili to gently boil for 15 to 20 minutes, until quinoa and sweet potato are cooked.
  5. Remove pot from heat and allow it to sit covered for 10 to 15 minutes before serving. The longer the chili sits, the thicker it will be.
  6. Serve with sour cream, cilantro, and your favorite chili toppings.
