Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 medium sweet potatoes
  • 1 can (5 oz) tuna in water, drained
  • 1 ripe avocado, pitted and peeled
  • 2 tablespoons plain Greek yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons red onion, finely diced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon fresh cilantro, chopped
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional: A pinch of red pepper flakes

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Scrub the sweet potatoes clean and prick them several times with a fork to allow steam to escape. Place them on a baking sheet and bake for 45 to 50 minutes, or until they are tender when pierced with a knife.
  2. While the potatoes are roasting, grab a medium bowl. Combine the drained tuna, ripe avocado, Greek yogurt, red onion, and lime juice. Use a fork to mash the avocado and mix all the ingredients until well combined but still slightly chunky for texture.
  3. Fold in the fresh cilantro and season with salt and pepper. If you like a little extra heat, add a pinch of red pepper flakes at this stage. Taste the mixture and adjust the lime juice or seasoning according to your preference.
  4. Once the sweet potatoes are cooked, slice them down the center lengthwise. Gently fluff the inside flesh with a fork. Generously scoop the tuna and avocado mixture into the center of each potato. Garnish with more cilantro if desired and serve immediately.
