How to make it
Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F).
Preheating the oven ensures that the sweet potatoes cook evenly and thoroughly.
Wash and pierce the sweet potatoes with a fork.
Washing removes any dirt, and piercing helps prevent the sweet potatoes from bursting in the oven.
Place the sweet potatoes in the oven.
Baking the sweet potatoes will make them tender and ready for stuffing.
In a skillet, cook the beef mince over medium heat until browned.
Cooking the beef until browned adds flavor and ensures it's fully cooked.
Add chopped onion, garlic, and red pepper to the skillet.
Adding vegetables enhances the flavor and nutrition of the filling.
Stir in the taco seasoning and jalapenos.
The seasoning adds the signature taco flavor to the beef mixture.
Mix in the spinach and tomato paste.
Adding spinach boosts the nutritional value and color of the filling.
Remove the sweet potatoes from the oven and let cool slightly.
Allowing them to cool slightly makes them easier to handle.
Slice the sweet potatoes in half lengthwise.
Cutting them in half creates a boat shape for the filling.
Fill the sweet potato halves with the beef mixture.
Filling the sweet potatoes creates a delicious and hearty meal.
Top with light mozzarella.
The cheese adds creaminess and flavor to the dish.
Return to the oven for an additional 10 minutes to melt the cheese.
Baking the filled sweet potatoes allows the cheese to melt and become bubbly.
