INGREDIENTS

4 oz Lean Ground Turkey

1 medium Sweet Potato

1/4 cup Black Beans

1/4 cup Diced Tomatoes

1/4 cup Red Onion, chopped

1/4 cup Red Bell Pepper, chopped

1 clove Garlic, minced

1/8 cup Low-Fat Cheddar Cheese, shredded

1 tsp Chili Powder

1 tsp Ground Cumin

Salt and Pepper to taste

PREPARATION

• 1

  Preheat your oven to 400°F.

• 2

  Bake the sweet potato until tender (about 45-50 minutes) or microwave until soft, then let cool slightly.

• 3

  Once cooled, slice the sweet potato in half lengthwise and carefully scoop out most of the flesh, leaving a thin layer to create the 'skin'.

• 4

  In a skillet over medium heat, sauté the minced garlic, chopped red onion, and red bell pepper until softened, about 3-4 minutes.

• 5

  Add the lean ground turkey to the skillet and cook until browned, breaking it up as it cooks.

• 6

  Stir in the chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper along with the black beans and diced tomatoes. Let the mixture simmer for 5 minutes to meld the flavors.

• 7

  Spoon the turkey chili mixture generously into the sweet potato skins.

• 8

  Sprinkle the low-fat cheddar cheese on top of each filled sweet potato skin.

• 9

  Optional: Place the filled skins back in the oven for 5 minutes to melt the cheese slightly before serving.
