How To Make spicy sweet potato chili

  • Step 1
    In a large pot, add tomato soup, water, and chopped sweet potato. Bring to a boil, then let simmer for about 20 minutes.
  • Step 2
    Add in remaining ingredients and let simmer for at least an hour. I like to let mine cook for two hours. It really gives the flavors time to meld.
  • Step 3
    While chili is simmering, prepare your favorite cornbread. You can choose to make a chili cornbread casserole, or just serve the cornbread on the side. If you want to go the casserole route, follow the next few steps.
  • Step 4
    Once the chili is finished, layer several cups of chili in a casserole dish
  • Step 5
    Then, sprinkle cheese over top chili layer
  • Step 6
    Next, pour cornbread batter over top of cheese and chili.
  • Step 7
    Bake for about 20 minutes, or per directions of your cornbread recipe. Serve with cilantro and extra cheese if you would like.
