Sweet potatoes with spicy black bean chili

This was sent to my by Marilyn who just happens to be one of my best friend's mom who says: "I'm a really lazy cook most days, so this is one of our favorite recipes. Something in your website led me to think you'd like something this simple too. (Maybe it's all the one-pot-meals we have here, hehe.) I have to say, I got it from Betty Crocker, but I simplified it even more than it already was."

Bake or nuke sweet potatoes until soft. While they're cooking, simmerblack beans and tomatoes together untill the mixture gets a littlethicker (about 10 minutes). Open up the sweet potatoes, mash slightlywith a fork, put the bean and tomato mixture on top. Eat.

If you're ambitious you can saute some green pepper in oil before addingthe canned stuff, and you can put some tofutti sour cream and cilantroon top. Betty Crocker says this feeds four, but the two of us polish itoff.
