Instructions

  1. Thinly slice the pepper and onion. Pierce the sweet potato several times and bake at 425F for 35-45 minutes, until fork-tender.
  2. Heat the oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and pepper with a pinch of salt and cook 4-5 minutes until softened and lightly browned.
  3. Add the beef, salt, and pepper. Cook 6-8 minutes, breaking it apart, until the thickest portion reads 160F (71C) on an instant-read thermometer. Wash the board, knife, and your hands with soap and water before touching anything else.
  4. Warm the black beans in the microwave for 1-2 minutes. Split the sweet potatoes and top with the beef mixture, beans, yogurt, and salsa.
