I can't remember the name of the people that did a class with us and raved about this chili recipe. They made it sound so good that it was on my list of things to do! This recipe can work well alone f you are a vegan or can be converted for meat lovers by just adding chicken. It is taken from Eating Well, one of my favorite cooking magazines. Ingredients 1 Tablespoon plus 2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil 1 Medium-large sweet potato, peeled and diced 1 Large onion, diced 4 C

For our Rum and Brown Sugar Marinated Steak recipe, you can use practically any cut of steak. My favorite cut is the New York strip (aka shell, top loin or strip steak), but I chose a flank steak here to demonstrate another option. The flank steak can be put in a large Ziplock bag and marinated in the fridge for a longer period. Just remember to bring the steak back to room temperature before grilling.
