    2. Add sweet potatoes, black beans, tomatoes, bulgur, water, vegetable broth, cilantro and lime juice. Stir until well combined.
    3. Add spices, salt and pepper. Stir and bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook 25 to 30 minutes, until flavors have developed and bulgur is tender. Taste and add additional spices if desired.

    RECIPE TIP:
    For a milder chili, trade the poblano for green pepper and reduce the chipotle powder to 1 teaspoon. If a less thick chili is desired, add additional water.
