Sweet Potato Black Bean Chili

This vegan chili is so delicious. You won’t miss out the meat at all. It’s very nourishing and filling. And with the cold weather outside, it’s a perfect dinner to warm you up. I love chili, and I really enjoyed this version. And even my picky husband enjoyed it!

It’s made with black beans, roasted sweet potatoes, and a mix of vegetables and spices. It’s very simple to do. You can serve it with organic sour cream if you like (it won’t be vegan) or homemade cashew “sour cream” if you like, or just omit it if you prefer. Garnish with sliced green onions and cilantro too.

This delicious chili is vegan and gluten-free.
