recipe

  • Step 1
    Preheat the oven to 400°F. Clean the potato & use a fork to prick several holes around the skin.
  • Step 2
    Place the sweet potatoes on a sheet tray lined with parchment paper. Bake for 45-50 minutes at 400°F, flipping them halfway through.
  • Step 3
    Meanwhile, prepare the filling. In a bowl, add: the drained kidney beans & corn, smoked paprika & minced parsley, if you have some. Season with salt, pepper & a drizzle of olive oil. Mix to evenly coat.
  • Step 4
    After 45-50 mins, check the sweet potatoes by pricking a knife through them. Once tender, remove the sweet potatoes from the oven.
  • Step 5
    Serve the green salad in a plate with the baked sweet potato. Slice the cooked potato 3/4 of the way down the center. Top with the kidney bean/ corn filling & a dollop of guacamole. Re-season to taste & enjoy!
