SLOW COOKER SPICY BLACK BEAN AND SWEET POTATO CHILI
This nourishing, smoky vegan chili is perfect for cold weeknights. Mix everything in the slow cooker before the chaos of the day begins, then just toss in some frozen corn a few minutes before you're ready to eat. As with any chili, toppings go far. Feel free to throw on what you have and what sounds good, like tortilla chips, cilantro or vegan cheese. The recipe calls for either coconut oil or vegetable oil. If you'd like a mild coconut flavor - which plays well with the orange juice in the chili - choose unrefined or virgin coconut oil. For a neutral flavor, choose refined coconut oil or any vegetable oil. Use one chipotle chile for a very mild chili, and four if you like yours very spicy.

Tips:
- Soaking the beans: Soaking the beans overnight or for at least 8 hours helps to reduce the cooking time and makes them more digestible. If you don't have time to soak the beans, you can use canned black beans instead.
- Rinsing the beans: Rinsing the beans before cooking helps to remove any dirt or debris. It also helps to reduce the amount of gas that the beans produce during cooking.
- Using a slow cooker: A slow cooker is a great way to make chili because it allows the flavors to develop slowly and evenly. If you don't have a slow cooker, you can also make chili in a regular pot on the stovetop.
- Adding spices and seasonings: Chili is a great dish to experiment with different spices and seasonings. Some common spices and seasonings used in chili include chili powder, cumin, garlic, onion, and oregano. You can also add other spices and seasonings to taste, such as cayenne pepper, paprika, or chipotle powder.
- Simmering the chili: Simmering the chili for at least 30 minutes allows the flavors to meld together and develop. You can simmer the chili for longer if you want a more intense flavor.
- Serving the chili: Chili can be served as a main course or as a side dish. It can be served with a variety of toppings, such as sour cream, shredded cheese, diced tomatoes, or chopped onions.
Conclusion:
Slow cooker black bean chili is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is also a great way to use up leftover black beans. With a few simple ingredients and a slow cooker, you can have a delicious and hearty chili that the whole family will enjoy.
