Black Bean Sweet Potato Chili

10 Mar 2017

You might be noticing a more frequent appearance of healthier/"everyday" dishes lately and that is because I am trying to share more of my day-to-day recipes, instead of the only the more specialty ones. In my daily cooking, I have had to become very organized and simple and I am getting a really good system down, so I figure that someone else can benefit from this as well.

This dish is another easy one and like many of the others I have converted it to a "one bag" sous vide meal - meaning I prep everything and dump it into a vacuumed sealed bag, close and let it cook and that's it. For those that don't use sous vide, I have the traditional instructions that I use as well or you could easily prepare this in a crockpot too.
