This chili is delicious. The sweet potatoes are a good addition. Instead of 4 cans of black beans. I used 2 cans of black beans, one can of red beans, and one can of chili bean mixture. I also added about 2 tablespoons of chopped jalapenos. It added some heat without overpowering the flavors. - 7/6/11
