Number Of Ingredients 17

2 sweet potatos, cubed
2 can(s) tomato soup
2 can(s) water, use soup can to measure
1 can(s) black beans, drained
1 can(s) kidney beans, drained
1 can(s) navy beans, drained
1 can(s) diced tomatos
1/2 can(s) chipotle peppers in adobo sauce
1 can(s) pineapple chunks (20 ounce, somewhat drained)
1 c frozen corn
1 onion, chopped
1/2 jalepeno, chopped
1 tsp garam masala
1/2 pkg ranch seasoning
3 garlic cloves, chopped
1 dash(es) salt and pepper
1 c grated cheddar cheese

Steps:

  • 1. In a large pot, add tomato soup, water, and chopped sweet potato. Bring to a boil, then let simmer for about 20 minutes.
  • 2. Add in remaining ingredients and let simmer for at least an hour. I like to let mine cook for two hours. It really gives the flavors time to meld.
  • 3. While chili is simmering, prepare your favorite cornbread. You can choose to make a chili cornbread casserole, or just serve the cornbread on the side. If you want to go the casserole route, follow the next few steps.
  • 4. Once the chili is finished, layer several cups of chili in a casserole dish
  • 5. Then, sprinkle cheese over top chili layer
  • 6. Next, pour cornbread batter over top of cheese and chili.
  • 7. Bake for about 20 minutes, or per directions of your cornbread recipe. Serve with cilantro and extra cheese if you would like.
