There are so many fun ways to serve taco meat! I figured, why not take it up a notch and serve it nestled in a sweet potato? The savory, pungent flavors of the meat paired with the sweet potato are a winner.

Ingredients

Baked Sweet Potato Tacos

  • 1 and 1/2 pound ground beef

  • 1/2 cup taco sauce (or barbecue sauce, such as Gefen)

  • 2 tablespoons hot sauce

  • 4 sweet potatoes

  • 3 tablespoons water

Directions

Prepare the Baked Sweet Potato Tacos

1.

In a medium pan, brown beef for approximately seven minutes, until mostly brown.

2.

Add sauces and simmer for about 15–20 minutes, until cooked through and thickened.

3.

Pierce sweet potatoes with a fork. Place in a pan with water.

4.

Cover and bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for one hour and 30 minutes to two hours, until very soft.

5.

In a bowl, mash avocado together with lime juice.

6.

Cut open each sweet potato most of the way to create a wedge. Place some meat, avocado, tomato, and jalapeño pepper inside.

Tips:

The beef freezes amazingly, I always make a double batch to freeze some.
