Ingredients

Servings
  • 4 cups sweet potato peeled and chopped, about 1" cubes (about 2 large potatoes)
  • 1 cup onion about 1 medium, chopped
  • 1/2 tablespoon garlic minced
  • 2 black beans canned, 14 ounce, drained and rinsed
  • 1 pumpkin canned, 14 ounce
  • 1 diced tomatoes canned petite, 14 ounce, not drained
  • 3 cups vegetable stock

Seasonings

  • 2 tablespoons chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt more or less, to taste
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1/8 teaspoon cinnamon

Toppings

  • avocado
  • tortilla chips
  • cilantro
  • vegan cheese or sour cream
  • cornbread vegan

Instructions

  1. In crock pot add sweet potatoes, onion, minced garlic, black beans, pumpkin, petite diced tomatoes and vegetable stock. Add in all of your seasonings, with salt to taste (add more salt if you prefer) and stir until ingredients are evenly distributed.
  2. Cook on high for 4 hours, or low for 6-8 hours. Serve with your favorite toppings and sides.

Notes

  • For Instant Pot, only use 2.5 cups broth. Add all ingredients to Instant Pot, cook on manual HIGH pressure, for 10 minutes. Then quick release pressure, change to Sauté mode for 3-4 minutes with lid off, to release some extra liquid. You can mash gently with spoon to get thicker consistency, or chili thickens upon standing and cooling.
  • This recipe is very adaptable, so play around with add-ins and spices to your liking. I've used bell peppers, replaced the sweet potatoes with squash, and have also made with quinoa before.
  • Recipe serves about 8 small-medium bowls, or 6 large bowls. 
  • Chili will keep in fridge up to 5 days, or store in airtight container in freezer up to 3 months.
  • Nutrition based on 8 servings, about two heaping spoonfuls with large serving spoon.
