This was really good. I would definitely make it again, with a few changes. I would use oil for the sauteeing of the onions. It seems like you are not going to have enough liquid, but you are - just. Relax and trust the recipe. I would simmer the tomatoes longer and add the potatoes later so as to lose the brassy tomato flavor that overwhelms the sweet potato flavor. My crew loved it, though, I'm just picky!
Followed recipe almost to the letter. Used fresh crowder peas from my farm stand. Wasn't sure how much ham 2 slices of cooked ham was, used 3 fairly thin slices of a small cooked ham. Tasted great. Loved it. Will make it again. Thinking about trying it with shrimp and andouille. The peas took a little longer to cook than I expected. The pea portion of the dish was a little runnier than I expected, but the rice soaks it right up. You want that yummy liquid, so don't try to boil it off.
