Hearty yet simple to prepare, this stuffed sweet potato with black beans, kale and hummus dressing is a fantastic 5-ingredient lunch for one!

Prep/Cook Time: 20 Minutes, Servings: 1

Ingredients

• 1 large sweet potato, scrubbed
• ¾ cup chopped kale
• 1 cup canned black beans, rinsed
• ¼ cup hummus
• 2 tablespoons water

Directions

1. Prick sweet potato all over with a fork. Microwave on High until cooked through, 7 to 10 minutes.
2. Meanwhile, wash kale and drain, allowing water to cling to the leaves. Place in a medium saucepan; cover and cook over medium-high heat, stirring once or twice, until wilted. Add beans; add a tablespoon or two of water if the pot is dry. Continue cooking, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the mixture is steaming hot, 1 to 2 minutes.
3. Split the sweet potato open and top with the kale and bean mixture. Combine hummus and 2 tablespoons water in a small dish. Add additional water as needed to reach desired consistency. Drizzle the hummus dressing over the stuffed sweet potato.
