Chickpea Stuffed Sweet Potatoes
Oh hi, nice to see you again :)Here at vegan.io we love sweet potatoes. Sweet potatoes are actually much healthier for you than normal potatoes. Even though they taste sweet they help to regulate blood sugar. They're also full of anti-oxidants and anti-inflammatories.We're calling this recipe Chickpea Stuffed Potatoes because, well, it's chickpeas stuffed into potatoes.
