Sweet potato chili is one of my favorite meals to make once fall rolls around! This is a vegetarian recipe with no meat in the chili, but the sweet potatoes tastes wonderfully with the spices, beans, and tomatoes.

What kind of sweet potatoes are used in this recipe?

I just pick up whatever variety is on sale at the supermarket. Of course, if you have home-grown (I’m totally jealous) use those! Just be sure to peel them well.

How to easily dice sweet potatoes:

Use a sharp, nonserrated knife to cut sweet potatoes. They can be quite sturdy and thick, which is hard to chop. A nonserrated knife is the way to go!

How to make sweet potato chili:

Place chopped sweet potatoes, tomatoes, onions, and kidney beans in the Crockpot.

Add in chili powder, paprika, salt, garlic, and water.

Stir ingredients and cover to cook.

Can sweet potato chili be frozen?

Freeze individual portion-sized leftovers in plastic containers for quick lunches. Allow it to thaw before microwaving until heated through. Freezing before cooking is not recommended for this recipe.

Serving suggestions:

• Cornbread muffins go perfectly with this chili!
• Toppings can include sour cream, Greek yogurt, shredded cheddar cheese, bacon bits, and chopped chives
• Scoop chili into wraps and dip into sour cream for a fun twist!
