Southwest Loaded Sweet Potatoes 🍠🥩🔥 These have become an absolute favorite in my household — They're easy to make & packed with flavor! Love them for a weeknight dinner and using the leftovers for meal prep. FULL RECIPE ⬇️ INGREDIENTS (2-3 servings) - 2 sweet potatoes - 1 lb lean ground beef - Extra virgin olive oil - Taco/fajita seasoning of choice - 1 cup finely diced onion - 2 tbsp minced garlic - 3-4 tbsp hot taco sauce - 3-4 tbsp of honey Corn & Black Bean Salsa: (Combine all ingredients) - 1 can of fire-roasted corn (strained) - 1 can if black beans (strained and rinsed) - 1 cup finely diced red onion - 1 finely diced jalapeño (seeds removed) - 1 cup finely diced tomatoes - 1 bunch fresh cilantro finely chopped - 1 tbsp grated garlic - Juice of 1 lime - Salt to taste Additional Toppings: - Diced avocado - Light sour cream - Pickled red onions - Cotija cheese - Chopped cilantro Note(s): Some measurements are estimated, adjust ingredients to your preference. DIRECTIONS 1. Stab the sweet potatoes with a fork a few times on each side then coat in olive oil and salt. Bake in the oven at 400°F for 55-65 minutes or until soft/tender on the inside. 2. Prepare the corn and black bean salsa then place it in the fridge. 3. Get a large skillet going over medium-high heat and add in a drizzle of olive oil, the diced onions and garlic. Let sauté for ~3-5 minutes then add in the ground beef. Break it up into chunks and let sear for a few minutes to build some crust. Season and continue breaking up the beef. Once it's about ~75%-80% done, add in the hot sauce and honey. Continue mixing every few minutes until the beef is cooked through and slightly carmelized. 4. Plate it up & ENJOY! 🙌🏻 • • • • • #explore #cooking #food #Foodie #fyp
