Biggest Loser - Southwest Loaded Sweet Potato

Biggest Loser Southwest Loaded Sweet Potato


I don't know if you have been watching The Biggest Loser this season, I usually try to catch up on Hulu.com but the other week they shared a recipe for a Southwest Loaded Sweet Potato. I thought it looked pretty tasty and intriguing, so I decided to give it a go. My husband was a little leery at the combination of the foods, but once he tried it, we were both amazed at how delicious it was!

This recipe is my revised version of what they made on the show:


Southwest Loaded Sweet Potato (Less than 250 Calories and only 6 weight watcher plus points)

Ingredients:

1-2 medium sweet potatoes per person (depending on how hungry you are!)
1 lb of Ground Lean Turkey - I added a pinch of taco seasoning to give it a little flavoring.
Mild Salsa (your favorite brand)
Non-fat plain Greek Yogurt

Bake your potato in the oven and then make a slice down the middle to open it up to make a "bowl" I used a fork to kinda "mash" the potato a little. Then I drizzled a little salsa over the potato. Added a few scoops of ground turkey.  Then topped with more salsa and added about a tablespoon of greek yogurt. Eat up and enjoy! It's so amazingly tasty!

  1. That looks delicious! Just last night, my husband was telling me that plain Greek yogurt tastes like sour cream and I didn't believe him! :) I think I will show him this recipe, since he likes sweet potatoes.

  5. I am not a huge fan of the sweet potato, but I have never tried it any other way than typical Thanksgiving recipes. I may just have to give this recipe a try.

  6. These exercises will build up muscles in the thigh and buttocks.

    Myth 1: One needs a good exercise to get 'lower abs'.
    In a half squatting position your torso is as vertical as possible.

  7. Toothpick: it allows the removal of large debris accumulated
    in the interdental spaces is often inaccessible to the bristles
    of the brush. When the head of your electric toothbrush needs to be
    replaced you only need to buy a new head for the electric toothbrush.
    Another reason that electric toothbrushes have become more popular in recent years
    is because the price of it has gone down tremendously.

  8. When you use the air, to say, inflate a tire it
    comes out of the air tank. Place it in Front of a High Power Fan
    - A fan sometimes works to clean away dust on an artificial
    ficus tree. If your unit is draining properly there should
    be no accumulation of water in the PVC pipe.

  11. Here are a few tips to help prevent and quickly clear
    up acne breakouts using natural, organic skin care products:1) Wash
    your face gently two times per day with warm water and a mild soap such as a goats
    milk soap. Take good care of yourself. Cucumber is another
    powerful ingredient that helps fight oily skin.

  12. Purchase from local manufacturers if possible; if not, purchase direct from the manufacturer to ensure the most freshness - all-natural beauty products don't contain chemical preservatives, so their shelf-life may be shorter than their conventional chemical-filled counterparts. The term natural means only pure ingredients are used directly from nature as opposed to synthetic ingredients and organic products simply means that the molecule comprises of carbon and natural skin care products have no boundaries with regards to organic or natural products. Indulging in a warm bubble bath, listening to music and playing your favourite sport are also good ways of beating stress.

  13. I don't want to sound like I'm ripping on the Eden - PURE, but the couple of opinions I had been able to get and read
    weren't really encouraging or positive. So you won't have to stumble around in the
    middle of the night to turn up or down the heater.
    Here, we will discuss only about the electric space heaters.

  14. And this is the perfect place to do it. It really draws out their creativity.
    The staff person I talked to thought it would be
    best for me to come into the store so that I could review their whole list of
    birthday party crafts, each with a different cost.

  16. It is a risky game, though, no matter your convictions. Cleaning cartridges should be replaced every month or two (though we may be up to
    six weeks), which can make you a bit expensive for some people.
    Battery life long without doubt help to maintain if you travel from one place
    to another.
