This is a delicious and filling appetizer for Super Bowl Sunday or really any day! It is packed with protein and fiber from the beans and carbs from the potatoes. It is super easy to make and ready in under an hour. 

What you will need for this recipe:

  • Medium Mixing Bowl
  • Baking Tray + Parchment Paper
  • Sweet Potatoes: you can use regular potatoes if you don’t have or like sweet potatoes
  • Olive Oil
  • Red Onion
  • Beans: Use black beans, pinto beans or the Bean Trio from Whole Foods
  • Jalapeno: Adding a jalapeno is optional if you want some spice! If you don’t like a lot of spice, try to avoid the jalapeno seeds
  • Corn
  • Cilantro: adding fresh cilantro on top is optional, but adds a lot of flavor to the dish
  • Lime
  • Paprika
  • Dairy Free Yogurt: I used Culina dairy free yogurt, but any dairy free or regular plain unflavored yogurt works

Tips:

  • If you can prep and make the filling in advance and let it sit with the sauce, I highly recommend doing that so the mixture can soak up the most amount of flavor
  • Prep your sweet potatoes in advance and store them cut and raw in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days
  • You can use store bought sour cream to speed up the prep for this

How to Store:

  • These are best enjoyed the same day, but you can store the bean mixture in the refrigerator in a sealed airtight container for up to 3 days!
