Ingredients
20 ounces frozen sweet potato fries
1⁄2 cup cooked black beans
1⁄2 cup corn kernels
1⁄2 teaspoon cumin
1⁄2 teaspoon paprika
1⁄4 teaspoon garlic powder
8 ounces pre-cooked BBQ pulled pork
1⁄4 cup cheddar cheese
1 avocado (sliced)
4 tablespoons light sour cream
3 scallions (diced)
3 tablespoons chopped cilantro
Instructions

Note: BBQ chicken, BBQ jackfruit, or chili could take place of the pulled pork.  

Spread out sweet potato fries on a baking sheet or sheet pan. The more spread out they are, the crispier they’ll get. Follow the instructions on the package for temperature and cook time. Cook on bottom rack and flip fries halfway through cook time. When fries are at their desired doneness, pull baking sheet out of the oven.

Push fries a bit closer together. Evenly spread black beans and corn on top, then sprinkle with cumin, paprika, and garlic powder. Top with pulled pork (or alternative meat option) and cheddar cheese. Switch oven to the broil setting and move pan to the oven’s top rack. Broil 2 to 5 minutes until pulled pork is heated through, watching carefully so the cheese doesn’t burn.

Remove from oven; top with avocado slices, sour cream, scallions, and cilantro. Serve immediately.
