INGREDIENTS

1 medium Sweet Potato

5 ounces Lean Ground Turkey

1/4 cup Kidney Beans

1/4 cup Tomato Sauce

1/4 medium Onion, diced

1/4 medium Red Bell Pepper, diced

1/2 teaspoon Chili Powder

1/4 teaspoon Cumin

1/4 teaspoon Garlic Powder

PREPARATION

• 1

  Preheat your oven to 400°F. Wash the sweet potato thoroughly, then prick it with a fork several times. Place on a baking sheet and bake for 45-50 minutes until tender.

• 2

  While the sweet potato bakes, prepare the turkey chili. In a medium skillet over medium heat, add the lean ground turkey. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the turkey is browned and cooked through.

• 3

  Add in the diced onion and red bell pepper to the turkey. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes until the vegetables begin to soften.

• 4

  Stir in the chili powder, cumin, and garlic powder. Mix well to evenly coat the turkey and vegetables.

• 5

  Next, add the kidney beans and tomato sauce to the skillet. Reduce the heat to low and let the mixture simmer for 5-7 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if needed.

• 6

  Remove the sweet potato from the oven. Using a knife, carefully cut a slit down the center and gently fluff the inside.

• 7

  Spoon a generous amount of the turkey chili mixture over the sweet potato, creating a hearty topping reminiscent of a loaded hot dog.

  Serve warm and enjoy this balanced, flavorful meal.
