- 2 medium sweet potatoes
- 2-3 tablespoons olive oil
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1 15 ounce can black beans, drained and rinsed
- 3 cups cooked shredded Honey Chipotle Chicken
- ½ cup sour cream
- 2 teaspoons adobo sauce from the can of chipotle or hot sauce

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
Slice the sweet potato lengthwise and drizzle the cut side with oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper.
Place the sweet potato cut side down on a parchment paper lined baking sheet. Rub the skin side of the potatoes with oil so it is completely covered. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
Roast 30 minutes for a medium size potato. Potatoes are ready when they are fork tender and caramelized.
To make the Chipotle Crema combine the sour cream and adobo sauce (or hot sauce) taste and adjust the spices as needed.
To make the bowls add 1 half roasted sweet potato, with ¼ of the black beans, ¾ cups cooked honey chipotle chicken, 2 tablespoons of the chipotle crema, and lime wedges.
