Chili Cheese Stuffed Sweet Potato Recipes

Steps:

• Pierce the sweet potatoes several times with a fork and microwave, turning halfway through, until soft, 15 to 20 minutes. Meanwhile, toss the coleslaw mix, pico de gallo, pickled jalapenos and 1/2 tablespoon olive oil in a medium bowl and set aside.
• Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the tomato paste, chili powder and cumin and cook, stirring, until toasted, about 1 minute. Add the beef and 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook, breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon, until browned, about 4 minutes. Remove from the heat.
• One at a time, hold the sweet potatoes in a kitchen towel, cut open and scoop out a few spoonfuls of flesh; add to the skillet with the beef mixture along with the cheese and scallions. Season with salt. Return the skillet to medium heat and stir until the cheese melts, about 1 minute. Spoon into the sweet potatoes and top with the slaw.

Steps:

• Heat a pan over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and break up into smaller bits using a spoon or spatula.
• Add the cayenne, cumin, onion powder, garlic powder, pepper, and salt, then mix until evenly incorporated.
• Add ketchup. Mix thoroughly allowing beef to cook all the way through.
• Remove the pan from heat, and drain excess fat.
• Add the grated potatoes to a bowl, and add in the flour and 1 teaspoon of salt. Stir to combine.
• Using the palm of your hand, spread 1 tablespoon of the potatoes into a thin pancake.
• Add 1 teaspoon of the beef, then press a cheese cube into the middle.
• Fold potato over beef and cheese, then create a fist around the tot while using your opposite hand to flatten both sides, creating the cylindrical tot form.
• Heat vegetable oil over high heat until temperature reaches 360˚F (182˚C).
