Recipe: Sweet Potato Chili

This was originally on a site that is closed down - fortunately I had it printed.

2# ground mild italian sausage
2 large sweet potatoes (we love golden yams) (peeled and cubed bite size)
1 large red onion, diced
6 garlic cloves, minced
1 jalapeno, diced
1 7 oz. can diced green chilies
15oz can of tomato sauce
2 14.5oz cans of diced tomatoes
3 TBL Cumin
2 TBL Chili Powder
1 tsp Paprika
2 tsp White Pepper
1/4 tsp Cayenne
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 cup fresh cilantro
1 TBL Coconut Oil

1. Brown your ground meat in a stock pot. Once browned remove it with a slotted spoon leaving drippings in pot.

2. Add coconut oil and cook sweet potatoes for about 5 minutes stirring often. Add onion and continue cooking until sweet potatoes are fork tender, 10 minutes.

3. Add garlic, jalapeno, and green chilies and cook another 2 minutes.

4. Next add remaining ingredients except cilantro.

5. Simmer about 10 minutes so flavors can meld.

6. Stir in cilantro before serving.






We like a dab of sour cream (if you do primal) and avocado on top.  Also, the directions are the original from paleogirl.net,  I'm more lazy and throw everything in, put a lid on it and simmer 30minutes or so.
