In this easy Chicken and Sweet Potato Skillet, tender-crisp chicken thighs are nestled into an autumn bounty of sweet potatoes, apples, onion, and bacon, then finished off with a finger-lickin Smoky Maple-Dijon Sauce.

Sweet Potato Chorizo Chili with Poblano-Avocado Crema. If you’ve never added potatoes to chili before, prepare to be wowed by the heartiness of this intensely flavor-packed chili.

Make-Ahead Rosemary Sweet Potato Rolls
One of the most universally loved dining-out experiences has to be when your waiter unexpectedly brings out a basket of freshly baked rolls, right?

Chipotle, Black Bean, and Roasted Garlic Twice-Baked Sweet Potatoes
I love this combination of flavors so much that I’ve made 4 recipes now using chipotle peppers, black beans, roasted garlic, and sweet potatoes, trying to find the perfect way to use them on the blog.
