    I have been making this for years. I came across it under the meatless meals section of my "Secrets of Slow Cooking" cookbook. My meat loving husband would fall on the floor if I attempted to serve this meatless, so I added 1 pound of mild sausages and the juice of 1/2 a lime. Would you believe he has actually invited his buddies over to taste it....that's how much he likes it. My preferred hot sauce with this is Chipotle. Don't be thrown off by the cinnamon, it compliments the dish well. I have made it both with and without the Caribbean or Jerk seasoning and it tastes great!***Update***I made this last night with a whole pork tenderloin, WOW, I didn't think this could get better. Love it!

    Caribbean Sweet Potato & Bean Stew,I got this recipe from the Easy Home Cooking magazine. I like trying new and different things so I made this. The only thing I did differently when I made it was I added about four chicken tenderloins about 2oz each cut up into chunks. Also, I cooked this in about 1 1/2 hours in a pot rather than in the slow cooker as the redipe requests.,I have been making this for years.
