Categories     main-dish

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 large sweet potatoes, baked or microwaved until tender
1 tablespoon oil
1 pound ground turkey
One 9-ounce can black beans, rinsed and drained
1 cup corn kernels
3/4 cup jarred salsa
2 tablespoons taco seasoning
1 avocado, diced
1/4 cup sour cream or plain Greek yogurt
1 green onion, finely chopped
Chopped fresh cilantro, for garnish

Steps:

  • Cut the baked sweet potatoes in half and fluff their centers with a fork to create slight reservoirs in each. Set aside.
  • Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground turkey and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until it's browned, about 8 minutes. Add the black beans, corn, salsa and taco seasoning and cook, stirring, until they are heated through, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove the skillet from the heat.
  • Spoon the turkey taco mixture into the center of each sweet potato. Top each with avocado, a dollop of sour cream, some green onion and cilantro. Serve immediately or store in the refrigerator, covered, for up to 3 days.

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 medium sweet potatoes
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon chili powder
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground paprika
1 teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon dried oregano
¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons light brown sugar
1 lb ground turkey (see recipe notes below)
2 tablespoons tomato paste
½ cup water
½ cup finely shredded cheddar cheese
Toppings: fresh cilantro (finely diced red onion, salsa, sour cream, etc. (optional))

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Wash and dry the sweet potatoes. Prick each one several times with a fork then place on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake until soft and a fork can easily be inserted into the center of the largest one, 45 to 55 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, in a small bowl, stir together the chili powder, cumin, paprika, garlic powder, oregano, cayenne, salt, and brown sugar.
  • Spray a large nonstick skillet with cooking spray and set it over medium-high heat. Add the ground turkey and cook, breaking up the meat into crumbles as it browns, until no longer pink and cooked through, about 5 minutes. Add the spice mixture, tomato paste, and water, stirring well. Bring the skillet to a simmer, lower the heat to maintain a gentle simmer, and let cook, stirring occasionally, until the turkey meat has absorbed almost all of the liquid, about 10 minutes.
  • Cut the sweet potatoes open and use a fork to lightly mash the insides. Plate each potato, spoon the turkey meat evenly among them, and top each with 2 tablespoons of cheese, fresh cilantro, red onion, and/or any other toppings you like!
