SWEET POTATO TACO BOATS



I know this is salsa and not guacamole but this is an opportunity to use your imagination



Serves 2-3 (or store in an airtight container for meal prep - they reheat well)


MAIN DISH INGREDIENTS:

- 6 mini sweet potatoes

- 1 can black beans

- 1 ¼ cups frozen or fresh roasted corn


Guacamole INGREDIENTS:

- 2 avocados

- 2 tomatoes (your favorite kind, I used roma)

- ½ red onion

- 1 lime

- 1 tsp garlic powder

- Salt and pepper to taste


MAIN DISH PREPARATION AND COOKING:

- Preheat oven to 425 degrees fahrenheit

- Wash your sweet potatoes thoroughly

-Line a baking tray with foil and align your sweet potatoes on the tray

-Take a fork and poke each sweet potato four times

-Sprinkle a little sea salt, and pop into the oven for 35-45 min (will vary depending on your oven so periodically check. Once the potatoes are completely soft all the way through they are ready)

-Open your can of black beans and rinse thoroughly

-Warm up frozen roasted corn in microwave according to instructions (if you don’t have frozen roasted corn you can take a grill pan and grill a couple corn cobs on each side on low heat)


GUACAMOLE

-Scoop out your two avocados into a medium bowl and mash with a fork

-Chop your tomatoes and red onion into small cubes

-Combine avocado, tomato, and red onion

-Add in garlic powder, salt, pepper, and the juice of one lime

-Combine all ingredients


* when sweet potatoes are done, place them on a plate, slice in half vertically (making sure not to cut through the bottom), add black beans, corn, and guac into/on top of each sweet potato. Add a pinch of salt to the dish, and enjoy!


p.s. I know the picture has salsa, but imagine the salsa is guacamole. Alternatively if you're not an avocado fan, use salsa like the picture!
