Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400° F.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. Add the garlic and jalapeno and saute for an additional minute.
  5. Next add the black beans and corn. Mix to combine.
  6. 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.
  7. 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.
  8. 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.
