Instructions
1
|
Cook your sweet potatoes: you can do this in an INSTANT POT or in the oven. To cook them in an oven, pre-heat the oven to 400 degrees F. Stab each sweet potato a few times around with a fork and place them on a lined baking sheet. Bake for 45 minutes-1 hour or until tender and easily pierced with a fork. The time depends on the thickness of your potatoes.

Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add in the olive oil. Once hot, add in the garlic, chickpeas, cumin, onion powder, paprika, salt and pepper. Stir to combine and cook for 3 minutes.

Add in the greens and continue to cook, stirring often, until the greens are wilted. Remove from the heat and set aside.

When ready to serve, cut the center of the potatoes open and mash the inside. Divide the chickpea mixture evenly among the potatoes. Season with additional salt and pepper as needed and ENJOY!

Tips & Tricks (5)
- Dry Your Sweet Potatoes Thoroughly 🥔Pat the cooked sweet potatoes completely dry with paper towels before scooping to prevent excess moisture from making the filling soggy and diluting your spice flavors.
- Toast Your Spices First 🌶️Bloom the cumin, paprika, and onion powder in hot olive oil for 30 seconds before adding garlic and chickpeas to unlock their full aromatic potential and deepen the flavor profile.
- Roast Chickpeas Until Crispy 🎯Let your seasoned chickpea mixture cook uncovered for the final 3-4 minutes on medium-high heat to develop a slightly crispy exterior while keeping the inside tender, adding textural contrast.
- Massage Your Greens with Oil 🥗Toss fresh greens with olive oil and a pinch of salt 2-3 minutes before serving to soften them slightly and help them wilt into the warm sweet potato without becoming mushy.
- Double-Stuff for Structural Support 🏗️Scoop the sweet potato flesh leaving a ¼-inch thick shell, then layer the chickpea mixture alternately with greens to prevent the potato from collapsing and create a more visually appealing presentation.
