What to do:  
Start by sauteing onions and garlic in olive oil for a couple of minute on medium heat. Add your sweet potatoes after the have been washed, peeled and cut into cubes. Also add your carrots and bell pepper. Continue sauteing until onions are soft. About 5 minutes or so. Add remaining ingredients  (black beans, can of tomatoes, vegetable broth, and seasonings). Stir well to combine all the spices in. Simmer covered for about 20-25 minutes on medium-high heat until sweet potatoes are soft. Place chili on low heat until ready to serve.
