Instructions

Peel and dice the sweet potatoes into uniform cubes. Dice the onion and mince the garlic.
In a large pot over medium heat, add a splash of oil. Sauté the onion until golden brown, then add garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds.
Add the ground turkey to the pot, breaking it up as it cooks until browned (about 5-7 minutes).
Stir in chili powder, cumin, diced tomatoes with their juices, vegetable broth, sweet potatoes, and black beans. Mix well.
Bring to a simmer on medium-high heat, then reduce to low. Cover partially and let cook for 20-25 minutes or until sweet potatoes are tender.
Serve hot, garnished with fresh cilantro if desired.
