Twice Baked Mexican Sweet Potato

E because:
1)  there are between 20 and 45 g of carbs in this meal.
2) there are less than 5 g of fat in this meal. The sprinkle of cheese is a reduced fat mozzarella.
3) I have non-starchy veggies in this meal with berries and a drizzle of vinaigrette dressing.
4) My protein source is ground turkey (left over taco meat from Monday's tacos) .
5) Ice water to drink! To Make the Filling for the Potato: I use leftover Taco meat. So I had better start with that! Taco Meat:
Fry up some lean ground turkey. Once it's cooked, add 1 tbsp of chili powder and 2 tsp of cumin. Add 1/2 cup of salsa. Filling: Bake your sweet potato until soft. Cut in half lengthwise and scoop out the insides. Mash this in a bowl. Add this to the ground meat mixture. Fill your sweet potato skins with the mixture. Top with grated reduced fat mozzarella, and broil until it's all melted and lovely.
