Chili Stuffed Sweet Potato

  • Serving Size4

    Ingredients

    • 4 medium sweet potatoes
    • 1/2 small onion, diced
    • 1 lb grass-fed ground beef
    • 3/4 c diced tomatoes from a can, no salt added
    • Thinly sliced scallions for topping
    • 1 T approved oil
    • 1/2 tsp fine grain sea salt
    • 1/2 - 1 tsp chipotle chili powder
    • 1 tsp cumin
    • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika

    Directions

    1

    First, bake your sweet potatoes – preheat your oven to 400 F and wrap each potato in aluminum foil and place on a baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for about 1 hour and 15 minutes or until completely soft in the center. The size/shape of your potato will affect the baking time!

    2

    While you bake your sweet potatoes, make the chili. Heat a med/large skillet over medium heat. Add your approved oil, then diced onions and stir to coat. Once softened, add the ground beef, breaking up lumps to evenly brown.

    3

    Add the salt and spices and stir, cooking the beef until browned – about 3-4 minutes. Add the tomatoes and simmer for 5-10 more minutes, lowering the heat to avoid burning.

    Cut open your sweet potatoes, stuff, top with scallions, if desired, and enjoy!
