Sweet potatoes are high in fiber to help keep you full, plus they contain beta carotene, which benefits eye health. Turn a tater into a meal by stuffing it with a mix that's basically a vegetarian chili, and you have an entire healthy meal that's super easy to make.

  • 1/4 teaspoon chili powder
  • 2 limes, juiced
  • Salsa
  • 1/2 avocado, diced
