A hearty mild chili sweetened with sweet potato and corn. I made this up one night when over a dozen friends decided to stop by ... I used what I had in the cupboard and it's now one of our favorites! Ingredients:
1 tablespoon olive oil |
3 teaspoons minced garlic cloves |
2 medium onions |
2 large green peppers |
3 lbs ground beef |
1 (28 ounce) can diced tomatoes |
1 (15 ounce) can whole kernel corn |
2 (15 ounce) cans red kidney beans |
1 (15 ounce) can black beans |
1 (15 ounce) can garbanzo beans |
1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce |
1 (12 ounce) can tomato paste |
1 (6 ounce) can olives |
2 large sweet potatoes |
2 teaspoons chili powder |
2 teaspoons cumin |
2 teaspoons basil |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1 teaspoon pepper |
Directions:
1. Brown meat in a pan, drain fat off and keep aside.
2. In a 12 quart pan, heat the olive oil and minced garlic until garlic is golden brown.
3. Add onions and peppers and saute until onions are transparent.
4. Add the rest of the ingredients, including the browned hamburger and using the liquid in the cans of beans, but not the olives.
5. Let the whole pot simmer on medium heat until the sweet potatoes are tender (about 45 minutes, depending on stove).
