Sweet Potato Chili

Usually you don't think of Chili as something you make in the summer. But this one is delicious and has a nice smokey flavor! I like making chili when I have a lot of people coming over. It is so easy for people to just scoop up. For my 30th birthday this year, my entire family surprised me with a visit to Chicago. I was in complete shock. Of course I invited them all over for dinner the next night. I wasn't sure what to make for about 15 people. I made 1 meat chili and 1 veggie chili. This chili was raved about by the vegetarians and the meat eaters. I hope you enjoy and there will be some more summer foods coming soon!
