Description
A hearty dish combining baked sweet potatoes with savory seasoned ground turkey, black beans, and fresh toppings.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 medium sweet potatoes
- 1 pound ground turkey
- 1 taco seasoning packet
- 1 can black beans, rinsed and drained
- 1 cup corn (fresh, frozen, or canned)
- 1 cup diced tomatoes
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Toppings: avocado, salsa, cheese, cilantro
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Pierce each sweet potato several times with a fork. Place them on a baking sheet and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until fork-tender.
- While the sweet potatoes are baking, heat a skillet over medium heat. Add the ground turkey and cook until browned, breaking it apart as it cooks.
- Once the turkey is browned, stir in the taco seasoning, black beans, corn, and diced tomatoes. Mix until everything is heated through.
- When the sweet potatoes are done, carefully slice them open and fluff the insides with a fork.
- Generously fill each potato with the turkey mixture and top with avocado, salsa, cheese, and cilantro as you like. Serve warm and enjoy!
