This stuffed sweet potato recipe gets inspiration from south of the border. Created by Lindsay from the food blog Love and Olive Oil, the Taco-Stuffed Sweet Potatoes involves "mashing and flattening out the sweet potato and then slathering it with taco meat, melted shredded cheese and all the toppings your heart desires." You also eat it more like a taco salad, so you can enjoy a taste of the sweet potato in every bite.
The roasted sweet potatoes are covered in ground beef seasoned with chipotle (you can also used store bought taco seasoning) as well as avocado, melted cheese and sour cream. The stuffed sweet potato recipe is an unusual take on a seasonal staple families can enjoy between Thanksgiving and Christmas.
