Ingredients
- 1 Ib lean ground beef
- 1 white onion chopped
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 1 tsp chili powder
- 1/2 tsp ground cumin
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
- 1/2 tsp ground black pepper
- ½ tsp ground paprika
- ¼ tsp garlic powder
- ¼ tsp onion powder
- ¼ tsp crushed red pepper flakes
- ¼ tsp dried oregano
- 1 cup chunky salsa
- 1/2 cup water
- 4 sweet potatoes
- Toppings
- Shredded mozzarella
- Diced tomatoes
- Mashed avocado
- Sour cream
Steps
- Poke holes all over your sweet potatoes with a fork. Then, add them to a bowl or a plate with some water. Pop into the oven and microwave for 10 minutes on a high setting. If not cooked after, give it another 5 minutes to cook. In case your microwave is too small, you'll have to cook these potatoes two at a time.
- While the sweet potatoes are being microwaved, heat up a skillet to medium-high heat. Add in ground beef, onion, and garlic - stir and cook until brown. It will take 5-7 minutes. Drain the grease.
- Add all of the spices and seasoning, salsa and water. Give it a good stir and cook on low heat for about 5 minutes.
- When the potatoes are cooked, let them cool down a little, but cut lengthwise to open them up without cutting through completely.
- Stuff the potatoes with cooked beef mixture. Top up with mozzarella, tomatoes, mashed avocado, and sour cream. Enjoy!
