# How-To Steps:
01 - Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Pierce sweet potatoes several times with a fork. Rub with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Place on baking sheet.
02 - Roast sweet potatoes for 35–40 minutes until tender when pierced with a knife.
03 - Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add red onion and sauté for 3 minutes until softened. Add garlic, cumin, smoked paprika, and chipotle pepper. Cook for 1 minute more until fragrant.
04 - Add black beans, vegetable broth, salt, and pepper to the skillet. Simmer for 8–10 minutes, mashing some beans with a spoon for thicker texture. Stir in lime juice and keep warm.
05 - Combine tomatoes, red onion, jalapeño, cilantro, lime juice, and salt in a bowl. Toss well and set aside.
06 - Once sweet potatoes are cooked, split each open lengthwise. Fluff the flesh with a fork.
07 - Spoon chipotle black beans over each sweet potato. Top generously with tomato salsa. Add avocado slices, extra cilantro, and lime wedges if desired.
08 - Serve immediately while sweet potatoes are warm.
