It was a little bland for my taste, but I've been hearing so much about chocolate chili that I decided to try adding a touch of chocagave syrup (healthier than regular chocolate syrup). DELICIOUS! And even after adding the chocagave, it was only 330 cals/serving. I'm thrilled :)Laurahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17100746061554733157noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1704170106558126102.post-53211272550598952582008-08-25T00:30:00.000-04:002008-08-25T00:30:00.000-04:00"Merry, yams are the orange ones.

Sweet potatoes are white. (Usually supermarkets here in CA only stock yams, but name them interchangeably "yams" or "sweet potatoes.")<BR/><BR/>I love yams AND sweet potatoes, though truth be told, I like sweet potatoes a teeny bit better. Neither one of them really need condiments, IMO, but a little butter never hurt anything, either. :Dtakeupyourbedandwalkhttp://takeupyourbedandwalk.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1704170106558126102.post-74812395392728347752008-06-30T13:06:00.001-04:002008-06-30T13:06:00.001-04:00Yum!!!!

I generally do a fair amount of cooking on the weekend (this weekend was spicy chicken with fruity nutty couscous, and a peach chicken salad). Last time I made chili I made it with part lamb part beef and I definitely liked it better than the regular beef chili. I'm wondering which kind of meat I might add to this recipe (though I suppose the beans do provide protein). Maybe beef (but not too much of it).<BR/><BR/>I'll try to send through some recipes too, though I usually read the blog at work and all my recipes are at home...<BR/><BR/>One thing I like to do with sweet potatoes (when they're in season locally so they're most flavorful) is to just chop them up, put them on a pan, sprinkle them with olive oil and salt and pepper and roast them until soft. Really simple, but they taste amazing!The Lethological Readerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08728934244935813026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1704170106558126102.post-21025583923576073132008-06-30T10:05:00.000-04:002008-06-30T10:05:00.000-04:00This sounds wonderful. We are big on sweet potato fries (baked in the oven) around here.<BR/><BR/>Slice them into fry-like shapes, arrange on a greased baking sheet. Sprinkle with seasoned salt and bake at 425 for about 20 minutes. Turn half-way through because they can burn pretty easily with all of those yummy natural sugars.Scrumpy's Bakerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12963135920577462855noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1704170106558126102.post-4837305684801847312008-06-30T09:35:00.000-04:002008-06-30T09:35:00.000-04:00I love sweet potatoes.
