INGREDIENTS
1 medium Sweet Potato
3/4 cup Chickpeas (canned, drained, and rinsed)
1 cup Plain Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 tablespoon Maple Syrup
1 teaspoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
Salt and Black Pepper (to taste)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F. Wash the sweet potato thoroughly and pierce it several times with a fork.
Place the sweet potato on a baking sheet and bake for about 45-50 minutes or until tender.
While the sweet potato bakes, in a small bowl, toss the chickpeas with olive oil, ground cinnamon, a drizzle of maple syrup, salt, and pepper.
Heat a small pan over medium heat and sauté the spiced chickpeas for about 5-7 minutes until they are warmed through and slightly crisp.
Once the sweet potato is done, slice it open lengthwise and fluff the inside with a fork.
Stuff the sweet potato with the warm spiced chickpeas and top with a generous dollop of plain nonfat Greek yogurt.
Drizzle a little extra maple syrup over the top if desired and finish with an extra sprinkle of cinnamon, salt, and pepper to taste before serving.
