1 medium red bell peppers or 1 medium green bell pepper, cut into short, narrow strips
2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and diced
2 cups water
1 (16 ounce) can great northern beans, drained and rinsed

directions

Heat the oil in a big soup pot; add in the onion; saute over med-low heat until translucent.
Add in the garlic; continue to saute until onion is golden.
Stir in bell pepper, sweet potatoes, and water; bring to a rapid simmer, then decrease the heat.
Cover and simmer gently until the sweet potatoes are just tender but still firm, about 10-15 minutes.
Add in the beans, hominy, tomatoes, corn, chiles, cumin, and oregano; simmer gently for 20-25 minutes.
Stir in cilantro, and taste first before adding any salt.
Add red pepper flakes if desired.
The stew should have the consistency of a thick chili, moist, but not soupy.
