Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound ground turkey
  • 2 cup diced sweet potatoes (1 large)
  • 1 can black beans, drained and rinsed (15 ounce)
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon chipotle chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 3 green onions, sliced
  • 1 tomato diced
  • 1/3 cup sour cream
  • 1/3 cup salsa

Method
 

  1. Add diced sweet potatoes to a microwave-safe plate. Cover with a damp paper towel. Microwave on high for 5 minutes. Carefully remove and set aside until ready to use.
  2. Combine sour cream and salsa in a small bowl to make the sauce. Set aside for serving.
  3. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground turkey. Cook and crumble for about 5 minutes until only a little pink remains. Drain the skillet if necessary.
  4. Add the hot sweet potatoes, black beans, salt, chipotle chili powder, and cumin. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes until the sweet potatoes are soft and the turkey is fully cooked. Remove from heat. Sprinkle on the cheese to melt. Top with green onions, diced tomatoes, and sauce. Serve immediately.

Just make sure they're diced small so they cook through at the
