Ingredients

 

  • 6 sweet potatoes (medium and uniform in size)
  • 1 Tablespoon light olive oil
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 (16-ounce) can black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 jar Chili Starter
  • 1/2 cup red and yellow bell pepper, seeded, cored and minced
  • 1/2 cup cooked corn kernels
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, Colby, Monterey Jack, Manchego)
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 1/4 cup scallions, chopped

 

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
  2. Pierce sweet potatoes with a fork. Place a piece of foil on the bottom of the oven to catch any drips. Bake sweet potatoes for 45-60 minutes, or until the center is soft.
  3. Heat 1 Tablespoon light olive oil in a 2-quart saucepan. Add ground beef. Cook over medium-high heat and stir until meat is browned. Add black beans and Chili Starter. Simmer uncovered for 10 minutes.
  4. Make a slit on the top from end to end of each sweet potato. Pull apart to make a cavity. Spoon chili onto each sweet potato. Top with bell pepper, corn, sour cream, cheese, cilantro and scallions. Serve immediately.
