Description

This chili doesn't have to be spicy if you don't want it to be. It's so savory, you won't even miss the beans. The sweet potato gives it a sweetness you'll love. This chili is full of nutrition and may even taste better the next day!

Ingredients
  • 1 lb ground chicken
  • 1 lb hot sausage (or mild)
  • 2 medium yellow or white onions, diced

Instructions
  1. In a large pot, on medium-high heat, cook the sausage and ground chicken. Break up the meat with a spoon as you stir.
