Great Dish to Get into Rotation. Serves 2

How easy is baking a sweet potato, and topping with sharp cheese and beans. Almost no recipe.

Halve a large sweet potato and coat all sides with oil and salt. Place on parchment paper cut side down

Bake at 425º for 20-25 minutes, until easily pierced with a fork. Flip over and trim away any serious charred spots.

Use a fork and rough up the insides

Grate a cup of cheddar cheese

Drain a can of black beans, then toss with a little cumin, lime juice, and pepper

Sprinkle half the cheese over the potatoes, then a good smattering of black beans, and then the remaining cheese.

Put back in 425º oven and reheat for 5 minutes.

Done!

Of course you can change out the cheese and beans and be creative with the herbs and spices!
