First, bake your sweet potatoes
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees and wrap each potato in aluminum foil and place on a baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for about 1 hour and 15 minutes or until completely soft in the center. The size/shape of your potato will affect the baking time!
While your sweet potatoes bake, make the beef taco meat
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. • Add the onion and cook for 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds. • Add the beef and cook until no longer pink, breaking into crumbles. Add chili powder, coriander, cayenne pepper, oregano, tomato paste, vinegar and broth - stir to combine. Cook until the liquid is completely absorbed. Remove from the heat. Season to taste with salt and black pepper.
Next, stuff your potatoes
