Instant Pot Sweet Potato Chili
Overview
The first time I had a chili like this it was after our son was born.
A family friend brought it over to help us with the transition of one child to two (so nice)! I remember it was hearty, yet healthy and nutrient dense; perfect for the colder winter months. Hope you love it!
Serves 6-8 as a main course (about 1 cup per serving)

Method
Set your instant pot to the saute setting. Add the coconut oil. Once melted, brown the beef in the pot, with a heavy pinch of kosher salt and some fresh cracked pepper. Once brown, add the onions and allow the onions to cook down for about 5 minutes. Add the garlic, then the cumin, chipotle and adobo sauce, and the brown sugar. Smells glorious, doesn’t it?
Next add your diced sweet potatoes, the whole peeled tomatoes, water, and black beans.
Switch the setting to the bean/chili setting. This will automatically set the timer for 35 minutes.
That’s it. Super easy! Hope you enjoy!
