Add the sweet potatoes, chili powder, cumin, and salt and pepper to the pot. Stir until well combined.
Cover and let the chili simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until the sweet potatoes are tender.
If desired, add a can of black beans to the chili for added protein.
Serve hot with your favorite toppings, such as shredded cheese, sour cream, and green onions.
