Description

A tasty mixture of kale and chickpeas joins a spoonful of homemade guacamole in this easy stuffed sweet potato recipe.

Ingredients

2 medium sweet potatoes
2 teaspoons olive oil, divided
1 cup canned chickpeas, drained and rinsed
1 cup chopped kale
1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 medium avocado, diced
1/8 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1 tablespoon guacamole seasoning mix

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2 Cut sweet potatoes in half lengthwise and rub with 1 teaspoon olive oil. Place cut-sides down on the prepared baking sheet.
3 Cook in the preheated oven until cooked through and tender, about 25 minutes.
4 Meanwhile, heat remaining olive oil in a medium skillet over low heat. Add chickpeas and kale; cook for 5 minutes. Add garlic salt and cumin and cook until chickpeas are hot and kale is wilted, 5 to 10 minutes longer.
5 Meanwhile, mash avocado in a small bowl. Mix in cilantro and guacamole seasoning.
6 Remove sweet potatoes from the oven. Scoop a small hole in each sweet potato half and fill with desired amount of chickpea-kale mixture and guacamole. Serve immediately.
