Step 1

Have your bacon cooked, drained, crumbled, and set aside

Step 2

In a large skillet or saucepan, add cooking fat and melt over medium heat.

Step 3

Add diced sweet potatoes and stir to coat in the fat, sprinkle with salt, then cover the pan and cook about 2 minutes. Uncover and stir again to brown evenly. Continue to cook 2-5 minutes until soft, adjusting the heat to avoid burning.

Step 4

Once sweet potatoes are soft, add the diced onions and cook about a minute, stirring.

Step 5

Next, add the chorizo to the pan, breaking up lumps and stirring with a wooden spoon. Cook and stir over medium heat until nicely browned.

Step 6

Once the sausage and sweet potato mixture is browned, add the crushed tomatoes, tomato sauce, and all the spices and stir to combine flavors.

Step 7

Continue to cook and stir over medium heat until the mixture begins to bubble, then lower the heat and simmer for 5 minutes.

Step 8

Once ready to serve, add the bacon to the chili. Serve over your favorite greens and garnish individual servings with sliced green onion and avocado.

Step 9

Enjoy!
