Ingredients

    1 Tbsp canola oil
    1 cup diced onions
    3 medium sweet potatoes (1 lb), peeled and cut into 1/2-inch cubes
    1/2 of 15 1/2 oz can chickpeas
    1/2 of a 16 oz can dark kidney beans, rinsed and drained
    1 can (14 1/2 oz) diced tomatoes
    1 can (14 oz) vegetable broth
    3 Tbsp reduced-fat peanut butter
    1 1/2 tsp sugar
    1 1/2 tsp ground cumin
    1/2 tsp curry powder or ground cinnamon
    1/4 tsp black pepper
    1/8 tsp cayenne
    1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro leaves

Directions

1. Heat canola oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add onions and cook 6 minutes or until richly browned, stirring frequently.
2. Add potatoes and cook 2 minutes. Add remaining ingredients, except cilantro, and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer 25-30 minutes or until potatoes are very tender. Spoon into bowls and serve topped with cilantro, if desired.

Flavorful tip: Be sure to cook the onions the full 6 minutes to insure rich brown results.
