Ingredients 

• 2 cups sliced onion (1 large)
• 20 oz peeled and cubed sweet potato
• 2/3 cup diced zucchini
• 1-2 cans black beans (or another bean)
• 28-oz can diced tomatoes
• 1 1/2 T chili powder
• 1 tsp cumin
• 1 tsp salt
• 2 tsp orange zest
• 1 cup water (or broth)

Directions

Combine all ingredients in a big pot, and bring to a boil. Then lower and cook until the sweet potatoes are soft. The chili tastes even better the next day, after the flavors have had a chance to combine.
