1/2 cup chopped bell peppers
2 tsp olive oil
fresh ground pepper

  1. Heat the oil in skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and sauté for 2-3 minutes.
  2. Add the sweet potatoes, bell peppers, and 1 Tbsp of water.
  3. Cover and cook for 15 minutes or until the potatoes are soft. Turn and toss frequently to avoid burning.
