Chipotle Stuffed Sweet Potatoes

Over the last year, my love for sweet potatoes have really grown. I went from pretty much just eating them plain or with peanut butter (don't judge!) to eating them in a variety of ways. I used them in my roasted pork with root vegetables recipe, for sweet potato pie bites and my orange glazed brussels sprouts and sweet potatoes.

Since sweet potatoes are rich in vitamins A and C and are high in fiber, they make the perfect meal option. I want to continue to use them more often in a variety of recipes. The problem is that my husband is not always the biggest fan and therefore, I have to disguise them with flavors that he loves.

I wanted to make something Mexican-style that would be able to be eaten as a side dish or as an entree that is both healthy and delicious. I wanted to load these up with all of my favorite flavors including bell peppers, corn, black beans, lime juice, smoky paprika and chipotle powder, salsa and guacamole for a flavor-packed dish.

You can cook your sweet potatoes in the microwave or in the oven. You know that I am always about saving time and energy so I just made mine in the microwave. These are so customizable too. If you don't like sweet potatoes, use regular potatoes. It you want meat, add it. You can also use cheese, jalapenos, green onion, cilantro, onions, red cabbage and more to make these how you like them.

This recipe turned out amazing. I loved the bright and colorful produce. To make this more filling, you could add cheese, black beans or chicken. All of the flavors blended well. The smoked paprika provided a smoky flavor that you could taste in each bite.

For this recipe, I used fresh and flavorful guacamole from Sabra. I love Sabra products because they make eating healthy easier by having healthy products that are ready to eat that are full of flavor. Of course, their hummus is awesome and I buy that often but I wanted to experiment with their salsa and guacamole which I had not had before. It was delish!
