Okay, I had never (knowingly) made a gluten-free meal before. Mostly, that’s because I didn’t know what gluten-free was. Truly. Is that terrible? But I know that for health reasons, a lot of people can’t (or don’t want to) have gluten in their diets.
So I was challenged to share a gluten-free recipe that is so yummy, you’d never know it was missing anything.
Enter, Sweet Potato Chili.
After fiddling with it this way, then that, I have arrived at the perfect mixture of gluten-free yumminess sure to tickle your tastebuds. Here it is.
1 peeled sweet potato, hunked up into cubes
2 chopped green peppers
4 chopped cloves of garlic
1 chopped onion
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 teaspoon cumin
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
2 teaspoons carob powder
2 cans of Ro-Tel (or diced tomatoes)
1 can of black beans (don’t include the water)
1 can of pinto beans (again, no water)
2 cups of chicken stock from the rooster you killed (or just use vegetable broth)
To make:
In some coconut oil or grapeseed oil, cook the vegetables in a pan. When the onions are sauteed, put all of these veggies plus the rest of the ingredients into your crock pot. Cook on low or medium for a few hours, until the sweet potatoes are soft. Serve with goat cheese or another garnish on top!
Enjoy.
I never thought I would like sweet potatoes in my chili, but I do! With food, I’m rarely afraid to try something new. Are you? The folks in the Udi’s Gluten Free Living Community aren’t! And neither should you be!
