  • Add the remaining ingredients to the crockpot and stir well.
  • Cook on high for 2.5-3 hours or low for 7-8 hours. If you cook the chili on high, you may need to let it rest on the "keep warm" setting to fully soften the potatoes depending on the size of your sweet potato pieces. (Cut them smaller for faster cooking.)

Notes

  • Each serving has 2 Smart Points.
  • 1 serving = 1 1/4 C or 350 grams
  • If you're using chipotle peppers in adobo instead of the chipotle salsa, run them through a food processor or blender before adding. Also, you may want to reduce the chili powder/black pepper and add a sprinkle or two of salt. 
  • Feel free to add/modify the spices in the recipe to fit your preference. If you like spicy, you may want to add more chili powder or a bit of paprika.
