Busy Day Sweet Potato Chili

October 31, 2011

On busy fall days like today, I turn to dishes like this. I pop everything into the slow cooker in the morning and then I don’t have to think about dinner the rest of the day. I have a nice warm bowl of chili ready if a visitor stops by or when my little bumble bee or karate kid gets hungry.

Busy Day Sweet Potato Chili  Recipe adapted from HERE.

  • 28 ounce can crushed tomatoes

    Mary, this looks fantastic. Can you describe the flavor of this chili compared to traditional preparations? Is it about the same? More like taco soup? Thanks!
