Healthy Loaded Sweet Potato Skins

Ingredients

  • 3 medium sweet potatoes

  • 2 tablespoons chopped onions

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1/4 cup bell peppers, chopped

  • 1/4 cup diced tomatoes

  • 1 cup cooked black beans

  • 2 tablespoons coconut yogurt or vegan Greek yogurt

  • 1/2 cup vegan mozzarella cheese shreds + 1/4 cup for topping

  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt

  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

  • 1/4 teaspoon paprika

  • 1/2 jalapeño, finely chopped

  • 1/2 lime

  • 1/2 tablespoon olive oil

Instructions 

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

  • Prick sweet potatoes with a fork and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until fork tender.

  • Slice sweet potatoes in half and allow to cool slightly.

  • While cooling, in a pan over medium heat, add 1 teaspoon of the olive oil and cook down onions, garlic, bell peppers and tomatoes until slightly tender, about 8 minutes.

  • Scoop out the flesh out of the potatoes, leaving a thin layer of sweet potato inside. Add it to a bowl with the onions, garlic, bell peppers, diced tomatoes, black beans, greek yogurt, cheese, salt, pepper, paprika and jalapeño. Stir together and set aside.

  • Rub the bottoms of the potato skins with the rest of the oil, place bottom up, and bake for another 5-10 minutes until crispy. Remove from oven and fill with the sweet potato mixture.

  • Top evenly with the ¼ cup mozzarella cheese and bake for another 10 to 15 minutes until cheese is melted.

  • Remove from oven and top with coconut bacon.

  • Serve with coconut or vegan greek yogurt and the lime. Enjoy!
