• servings: 4 servings
• total time: 1 hour 40 minutes

Ingredients

Cooking spray

4 small sweet potatoes

2 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil

1 yellow onion, chopped

1 carrot, peeled and chopped

1 lb. lean ground turkey

2 tsp. taco seasoning

1/2 c. cherry tomatoes, halved

4 tbsp. black beans

4 tbsp. corn

1 avocado, cubed

4 tbsp. sour cream

Hot sauce, optional

Directions

Preheat oven to 400º and grease a large baking sheet with cooking spray. Prick sweet potatoes with a fork and bake until tender, 50 to 60 minutes. Let cool, then split down the middle from end to end and scoop out a little to create a “bowl” for ingredients.

Meanwhile, in a large skillet over medium heat, heat olive oil. Add onion and carrots and cook until tender and golden, 10 minutes.

Add ground turkey and taco seasoning and cook until golden and no longer pink, 6 minutes. Stir in tomatoes and cook 3 minutes more.

Fill each sweet potato boat with cooked turkey mixture and top with black beans and. corn.

When ready to eat, top with avocado, sour cream, and hot sauce, if desired.
