Ingredients

4 medium sweet potatoes
1 cup black beans (optional) drained, rinsed
1 avocado diced
2 cups Cuban Beef Picadillo cooked
Sweet plantains cooked

Instructions

Poke holes into sweet potatoes with a fork. Place sweet potatoes in the microwave for 10-12 minutes or until they are soft and thoroughly cooked.
Remove from the microwave. Slice each sweet potato lengthwise, down the middle, then push both ends towards the middle so they open up. Using a fork, slightly mash the inside of the sweet potato.
Evenly top each sweet potato with lean ground beef, sweet plantains, and avocado. Serve and enjoy!
