Sweet Potato Boats
Prep Time: 5 mins Cook Time: 5-10 mins Total Time: 10-15 mins
|
Ingredients:
2 - 4 sweet potatoes
1 can (14.5 oz) diced tomatoes - spicy if you like extra heat
- drained
1 (14 oz) can black beans, drained
1 7 oz. can yellow corn, drained
1/2 pkg of Mexican grated cheese
Instructions:
1.
Bake sweet potatoes in
a 400-degree F oven directly on the baking rack for 40-45 minutes or until
tender to the touch. Remove from oven to
cool to the touch, but leave oven on.
2.
While potatoes are
baking, drain tomatoes and mix with beans and corn.
3.
Carefully cut sweet
potatoes in half and scoop out insides to make “boats.” Leave ~ 1/4 – 1/2 inch
of flesh so they don’t become too fragile and difficult to handle.
4.
Place sweet potato
boats face up on a baking sheet and fill with bean and corn mixture and top
evenly with grated cheese.
5.
Pop back in oven to
warm through and remove when cheese is melted and bubbly.
