Ingredients

  • 1 medium onion-chopped
  • 1 pound lean ground-beef
  • 2 tsp garlic-minced
  • 1 cup chunky-salsa
  • 1 packet taco-seasoning
  • ½ cup water
  • 4 medium sweet-potatoes about 12-4 oz each

Toping (Optional)

  • sour-cream
  • diced-tomato
  • shredded Mexican-blend-cheese
  • diced-avocado or guacamole

Instructions

  • Brown ground beef, chopped onion, and garlic in a skillet over moderate-heat. Drain grease & add the taco-seasoning & salsa.
  • Reduce heat to medium and cook for approximately 5mins until mixture has thickened & can be heated through. Accumulate to 1/2 cup of plain water to reach desired consistency.
  • As the beef is cooking, then poke holes all around the sweet potatoes and cook in the microwave to get 8-10-mins , turning sweet potatoes over once halfway through. If potatoes are not soft , keep cooking 1-3mins longer. I typically cook two tbsp at the same time, however when your microwave lets, you are able to cook at the same time. Allow sweet potatoes to cool slightly, and then slit them lengthwise and dab on the interiors using a fork.
  • Spoon the cooked taco beef within the sweet potatoes and then add sweet toppings like shredded cheese, diced avocado, tomato, guacamole, or sour cream. Serve & Enjoy!
