Ode To Stuffed Sweet Potatoes

This is by far my favourite and absolutely the best recipe for stuffed sweet potatoes because of the various textures and flavours mixing in every single mouthful. This is how every nutritious meal should taste – bright, not boring. I believe you get the best of both worlds with my tuna and butter bean stuffed sweet potato recipe. I hope you’ll love the simplicity, the effortlessness and the looks of it as much as I do.

The most exciting feature of this recipe is biting into contrasting flavours such as crisp tangy capers and silky smooth sweet potatoes. That being said, I highly recommend to not skip any of the ingredients listed, even if you believe you don’t like one or two of them. Especially not the vinegar – acid works wonderfully with tuna and creamy butter beans.

Julie’s Tip

Don’t be tempted to skip any of the listed ingredients.The acidity of vinegar works wonderfully with tuna and butter beans just as the shallots add a touch of crunch and mellow spiciness. Trust Kitchen Julie. I got you.
