Great meal idea when you have leftovers and don't know what to do with them or can be a great side to some protein!

 2 medium organic sweet potatoes
Guacamole Ingredients
 3 large ripe avocados
 1/4 red onion, finely diced
 1-2 garlic cloves, finely diced
 1 red chilli, finely diced
 Cracked Changing Habits Pepper to taste

You can get creative as you like with your fillings.
1

Preheat the oven to 180C and line a baking tray with baking paper.

2

Use a fork and prick wholes all over the sweet potatoes.

3

Cook until the sweet potato is soft, 30-40 minutes should do it.

4

When ready, make an incision down the middle of the sweet potato and pry open slightly, and allow to cool slightly as is.

5

Now get your chosen filling ready. Add the filling to the middle of the sweet potatoes and pop back into the oven to warm and crisp up the filling.

6

Meanwhile, add the avocados to a medium sized bowl and mash with a potato masher.

7

Add all other Guacamole ingredients to the bowl and mix together with a spoon. Taste the mixture and adjust if needed.

8

Once the stuffed sweet potatoes are ready, remove from the oven and place onto 2 plates.

9

Spoon the guacamole over the stuffed sweet potatoes and top with fresh herbs.

    I was looking for a sweet potato recipe for dinner tonight and found this one. I am glad I did! Yum! I cooked some brown rice and mixed it with some sautéed leek, zucchini and kale as my filling, with the guacamole over the top. It was nourishing and delicious. Thank you!
