How to make it, step by step

1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Wash the sweet potatoes, prick them with a fork, and roast them whole for 20-25 minutes until tender when pierced (or 8-10 minutes in the microwave to speed things up).
2. Meanwhile, dice the onion and red bell pepper small and sauté them with the olive oil over medium heat for 5 minutes.
3. Turn up the heat, add the lean ground beef, and brown it, stirring, for 4-5 minutes until no longer pink.
4. Add the sweet paprika, crushed tomatoes, and drained corn. Season with salt and pepper and cook for 4 more minutes over medium heat.
5. Cut the sweet potatoes in half lengthwise, fluff the flesh slightly with a fork, and spoon the beef and corn filling on top. Serve hot.
