This recipe was created in my kitchen on a rainy day when I was craving something warm and comforting. I wanted to make something vegan, healthy, and flavorful, so I decided to combine sweet potatoes and black beans to create a hearty and satisfying dish that would warm me up from the inside out.
The first time I made this chili, I served it with some vegan sour cream and tortilla chips on the side, and it was a hit with my family and friends. It' now one of my go-to recipes for potlucks and gatherings, and it' always a crowd-pleaser!
