South Western Twice Baked Sweet Potatoes
Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 4 sweet potatoes
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 small onion diced
- 1 green bell pepper diced
- ¼ teaspoon sea salt
- ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1 ½ teaspoon cumin
- ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 c shredded Monterrey Jack cheese
Instructions
- To begin, preheat your oven to 400 degrees.
- Wash the sweet potatoes and poke them several times with a fork. Set them on a baking sheet and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until they are cooked. Once they are done, remove them from the oven, but do not turn it off yet.
- While they are baking, cook the ground beef, onion, and pepper together in a skillet, breaking up the meat as it cooks. When it is cooked, stir in the salt, pepper, cumin, and smoked paprika.
- Carefully cut a slit in each potato and scoop most of the insides into a bowl, leaving about a half inch layer of potato on the inside of the skin.
- Add the meat mixture to the bowl with the sweet potato and stir it together to combine.
- Spoon the mixture back into the potatoes and bake for 10 more minutes.
- After they have finished baking, top them with the shredded cheese.
- Enjoy!
