Black Bean Chili over Sweet Potatoes

Time: 1 hrs 15 mins

Ingredients

• 4 large sweet potatoes
• 2 cups diced red bell peppers
• 1 large onion, chopped
• 1 tablespoon minced garlic
• 1 tablespoon chili powder
• 2 teaspoons ground cumin
• 1 (14 1/2 ounce) can diced tomatoes with juice
• 1 (14 1/2 ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
• 2 cups yellow squash, diced
• 1 tablespoon jalapeno, seeded and minced
• 1 lime

Directions

• 1 Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Pierce sweet potatoes with a fork and place on a baking sheet. Bake about 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until tender.
• 2 Saute bell pepper and onions in a small amount of broth or water over medium heat until soft and golden, about 10 minutes. Add garlic and cook for 2 minutes more. Stir in spices, tomatoes, and beans and bring to boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes.
• 3 Add squash and jalapeno. Cook, covered, about 6 minutes or until squash is crisp-tender. Place one peeled, slightly mashed sweet potato on each plate. Top with chili and drizzle with freshly squeezed lime juice, if desired.
