Ingredients
- 4 large sweet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 small yellow onion diced
- 1 small green bell pepper diced
- 2 large garlic cloves minced
- 1 small jalapeño seeded and minced (optional)
- 1 cup black beans drained and rinsed
- 1 cup corn fresh, frozen, or canned
- ½ cup water
- 2 teaspoons chili powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- ½ teaspoon sweet paprika
- 1 cup cheddar cheese shredded
- Garnishes all optional and to taste: pickled red onions, sliced avocado, guacamole, chopped tomato, sliced green onion, salsa, sour cream, chopped cilantro, taco sauce, fresh lime juice
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400° F.
- Wash and dry each sweet potato. Poke each one a few times with a fork and then microwave them for 4 minutes, flipping them halfway through. When the potatoes are soft, place them on a baking sheet and slice the centers open with a sharp knife.
- Heat a medium skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil. When the oil is hot, add the onion and green pepper and saute until they are tender, about 4 minutes.
- Add the garlic and jalapeno and saute for an additional minute.
- Next add the black beans and corn. Mix to combine.
- Add the water, chili powder, onion powder, garlic powder, cumin, and paprika. Stir to combine and simmer over medium heat until all of the water has been evaporated, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
- Remove the skillet from the heat. Fill each sweet potato with the vegetable mixture. Top with cheddar cheese and bake for 8-10 minutes or until the cheese is warm and melted.
- Serve the potatoes immediately, topped with your favorite garnishes.
Notes
- Store any leftover potatoes in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
