I really liked this recipe a lot.  I don't generally like sweet potatoes because they always turn out too sweet, and I don't like to mix "sveet and meat," as my Hungarian grandmother always says.  But this recipe was really great; I love spicy food, and the spice contrasted really nicely with the sweetness of the sweet potato.  I sort of doubled the recipe (maybe it was technically triple since I used 3 medium sweet potatoes and added a green pepper), and it made a whole crapload!  But I'm not complaining, as my boyfriend is a bottomless pit and the less I have to worry about what to make for lunch, the better.  I eyeballed it on the spices, and I think I may have over-done it on the spiciness just a tad.. Next time I might back off on the red pepper, or maybe use mild instead of medium spice salsa.

My husband and I aren't particularly fond of sweet potatoes (too sweet?), but I've wanted to try this recipe for a while now. It's pretty good! I used pineapple/peach medium salsa, and 24 oz chickpeas. I don't use any vegan cheese...so left that out, and didn't have tortilla chips, so I just put a tortilla on top (kind of unnecessary though). I also didn't add the pepper flakes b/c I wasn't in the mood for spicy.  Smiley

This was delicious! I forgot to put in the chips despite writing down the recipe twice, though.  Without them it was still yummy! I added about 1/2 can of corn that was in my fridge, and also did a cornmeal crust for it.  No vegan cheese at all and it was still moist and delicious.  My roommate wanted to cook a pizza at the same time, so I baked everything at 400F and it was fine. Great recipe!

I've been to this site a lot for recipes but I finally had to make an account here to say how much this recipe rocks. I've made this for every occasion and everyone asks me for the recipe.  I always have to make two batches for my family.  And it's gone fast. Thank you so much for this recipe!

This was so good.  It was a little bit too spicy for me (I added a little extra red pepper so that may be why) I didn't use any onion, garlic or cilantro, but it still came out wonderfully.  I added some yellow corn to make it a little sweeter, which I thought made it extra-yummy and I nuked the sweet potato in the microwave for 3 minutes so it would cook faster.  Ended up only taking around 35 minutes.
Leftovers turned out WONDERFUL!

This recipe was very tasty! ...instead of tortilla chips or in addition to, i recommend serving the dish over tostadas to add a crunch I felt was missing.  I also squeezed fresh lime juice over it before eating, which added the perfect amount of acid to the dish and worked wonders for the tastebuds!  I also left the skin on my sweet potato, which turned out superbly.

Pretty good. I doubled the recipe thinking it wouldn't make enough for our family (2 adults, 2 small kids); boy was I wrong! Doubling it filled my biggest casserole dish. We will have leftovers though!!!
I started by cutting up my sweet potatoes and then put those in the casserole dish and cooked in the microwave for 5 minutes while I got the rest of the stuff ready. Even after microwaving, I still had to bake for 45 min covered, 15 uncovered and some of the potatoes still weren't very soft! I also didn't add the chips to it. I put the chips over/under on the plate though.  Thumbs Up
Even though I doubled everything else, I only put about 20-24 oz of salsa in.
I think this will be much better when I reheat it for lunch tomorrow. Smiley

Great recipe! I never thought to put sweet potatoes with chick peas.  I substituted brown rice for the corn chips to make it healthy.  It turned out great.  We also didnt do fake cheese due to the fat content and it turned out great!

This came out fantastic and delicious!  I followed the recipe and added some lime juice after uncovering it like another reviewer suggested.  I baked it at 400.  The only thing I would change is to leave out the chips, just because it didn't seem to need them cooked with it all.
