Ingredients
-
3 tbsp Ava Jane’s Kitchen Avocado Oil

- 1 onion, chopped
- 1 large carrot, chopped
- 2 garlic cloves, crushed
- 1 tbsp tomato paste
- ¾ cup water
- 1 red pepper, cut into chunks
- 2 x 400g cans chopped tomatoes

-
3 tsp Ava Jane’s Kitchen Los Muertos Barbecue spice blend
- 1-2 tsp chili powder (depending on heat you desire)
- Sliced avocado and cilantro for garnish and to serve

Directions
- Heat oven to 385ºF. Put the sweet potato chunks in a roasting tin and drizzle over 1½ tbsp oil. Roast for 20-25 minutes.
- Heat the remaining oil in a large pan over a medium heat. Add the onion, carrot and red pepper. Cook for 8-10 mins, stirring occasionally until soft, then add in the garlic and cook for a minute more. Add chili powder and Los Muertos seasoning, along with the tomato paste, and stir for another minute.
- Add the chopped tomatoes and 3/4 cup water. Bring to a boil and simmer for 20 minutes. If you’re making rice, start preparing it now in a separate pot.
- Add the beans and cook for another 10 minutes before adding the roasted sweet potato.
- Stir for 5 minutes, then season to taste and serve with lime wedges, avocado, rice, and cilantro.
