    This vegan sweet potato chili is perfect for those chilly nights! Easy to make, top 8 free! Hints of sweet while completely savory, this chili will blow you away. 

    When fall hits, it’s time for delicious and filling soups, stews, and chilis.  We love a little hit of sweet mixed with all those delicious savory notes and that’s why this vegan sweet potato chili is perfect for the fall. 

    Now, I don’t know about you, but I love soups year round.  So it’s nothing for me to make a delicious chili like this in the summer.

    I usually just put it in a crockpot and plug in on our deck so it isn’t producing heat inside of our house during those super hot summer days. 

    But for the most people, we know that people are eating soups in the fall and winter. 

    This delicious vegan sweet potato chili is packed with a ton of flavor and so super filling.

      This recipe looks amazing. I have issues with acid so I try to avoid tomatoes. Would I be able to substitute the tomatoes for something else?
