SOUTHWESTERN SALTY SWEET POTATOES TO CRY FOR!



Southwestern Salty Sweet Potatoes to Cry For! image

My friends beg for these everytime I give a party! They are so delicious and satisfying, I just never seem to fix enough no matter how many I make. I wonderful change from white oven fried potatoes which are so high in carbs. THESE ARE VERY LOW CARB. And I dare you to stop at just one serving...I found this recipe in Healthy Cooking but have modified it to my own taste.

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Place your sweet potatoes on a baking sheet and rub them with a little oil. (<—this is optional. I used avocado oil. I like how it helps the skin get crispy.)
  • Meanwhile, heat the oil in a skillet. Add the black beans, corn, salsa, lime juice, cumin, salt, pepper, and pepper flakes. Stir well and cook until everything is heated through, a few minutes. Remove from heat.
  • When the sweet potatoes are ready, gently cut a thin layer off of the top of each potato. Use a spoon to gently remove the flesh from each potato and place it into a medium bowl.
