Notes
- The nutritional information provided does not include the optional toppings.
- To make this recipe vegan, simply substitute in soy chorizo, or meatless crumbles for the ground turkey. You could also use black beans, instead of ground turkey, for a different texture and flavor.
- The chipotle chili can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. So feel free to make it ahead of time if you want to meal prep this stuffed sweet potato recipe and simply heat the chili up on the stove or in the microwave before stuffing the sweet potatoes.
