Ingredients

  • 3 cups peeled and cubed sweet potatoes

  • 3 cups vegetable broth, divided

  • 2 teaspoons olive oil

  • 1 cup chopped onion

  • 1 stalk celery, chopped

  • ½ cup chopped red bell pepper

  • 1 clove garlic, minced, or more to taste

  • 1 (15 ounce) can chickpeas, drained and rinsed

  • 1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes, drained

  • 1 teaspoon chili powder

  • ½ teaspoon salt

Directions

  1. Place sweet potatoes in a microwave-safe bowl and add a splash of the broth. Cook in the microwave until slightly softened, 3 to 5 minutes.
