Ingredients

Peanut Sauce

  • 1/2 cup hot water
  • 1/2 cup unseasoned rice vinegar
  • 4-5 Tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp sriracha
  • 3/4 cup creamy natural peanut butter
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt or soy sauce

Stuffed Sweet Potatoes

  • 4 medium sweet potatoes, baked
  • 1 1 15oz can black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 recipe peanut sauce, above
  • 1/4 cup crushed roasted peanuts
  • 1/4 cup roughly chopped banana chips (optional)
  • 1 bunch cilantro, chopped
  • 1 lime, sliced into wedges

Instructions

Peanut Sauce

  1. In a large bowl, mix the hot water, rice vinegar and sugar until completely dissolved.

  2. Add the sriracha and peanut butter. Whisk vigorously to emulsify. It will thicken as the sauce comes together and cools. If it's too thick, you can add a little extra hot water until you reach the consistency you desire.
  3. Add salt or soy sauce and taste. Add more sugar or sriracha if desired.

Stuffed Sweet Potato Assembly

  1. Bake the sweet potatoes. About 40 min at 400F depending on the size your potatoes.

  2. Prepare the peanut sauce and other toppings while the potatoes are baking.

  3. Cut the baked potatoes in half, score with a knife and top with black beans, peanut sauce, cilantro, peanuts and banana chips.

  4. Squeeze a lime wedge over the top!

Notes

*There will be extra peanut sauce left over from this recipe.
