Method

1. In a large skillet with a lid or dutch over, sautee the ground beef on medium-high until its brown + cooked through.
2. Add the chopped onion, celery and carrots. Sautee for 5 minutes.
3. While the veggies are cooking, make the sauce in a separate bowl by mixing together all of the sauce ingredients.
4. After cooking the veggies until they're starting to look transluscent, add the chopped sweet potato + sauce. Stir until everything is combined.
5. Bring to a boil and then turn the heat down to medium-low. Simmer for 25-30 minutes with the lid on.
6. Remove the lid + give it a stir. Simmer for another 10 minutes or until the sweet potatoes are tender + the sauce is thick.
