INGREDIENTS
1 medium Sweet Potato (~150g)
4 oz Lean Ground Turkey (~113g)
1/4 cup Black Beans (~45g)
1/4 cup Tomato Sauce (~60g)
0.5 oz Sharp Cheddar Cheese (~15g)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Wash the sweet potato thoroughly and pierce it a few times with a fork. Bake the whole sweet potato for about 40-45 minutes until tender.
Once baked, let the sweet potato cool slightly. Cut it in half lengthwise and scoop out most of the flesh, leaving a thin border to maintain the skin’s shape. Save the scooped-out flesh for another use if desired.
Place the sweet potato skins on a baking sheet. Lightly brush or spray the skins with a small amount of olive oil and season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Return to the oven and bake for an additional 10 minutes until edges are crispy.
While the skins crisp up, heat a skillet over medium heat and add the lean ground turkey. Cook until it browns, breaking it up with a spatula. Add the black beans and tomato sauce, along with your desired spices (a pinch of cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper) to create a lean chili. Let it simmer for 5-7 minutes to meld the flavors.
Spoon a generous amount of the turkey chili into each baked sweet potato skin.
Sprinkle the sharp cheddar cheese evenly on top of the chili-filled skins. Place them back in the oven for about 3-5 minutes, or until the cheese melts.
Remove from the oven, garnish with optional toppings like chopped green onions or a dash of hot sauce, and serve immediately.
