Super simple, super flavorful, these Spicy Veggie Burger Stuffed Sweet Potatoes so wanna be at your next tailgating or homegating get-together!
Hurricane Irma passed through my neck of the woods leaving behind uprooted trees, power outages and a marked chill in the air. Now, a chill for me might not be the same as a chill for you, as anything below 70 has me pulling out sweaters. But, a chill in the air usually means fall and fall means homegating and tailgating get-togethers!
And, most football centered get-togethers means scrumdidlyumptious foods – at least for me! Now, I’m absolutely no good at shouting-at-the-players-like-they-can-hear-me-through-the-telly and understanding football-gibberish like some people seem to have mastered; but, one thing I can do well is “guard” the table with ALL the foods 😉 This year my daughter started college at a University that’s known for it’s love and support of football and is entitled to discounted tickets. You bet, she is pretty popular among my friends now as most of them want to tailgate at one of those college football games – no matter if that means camping out overnight for a premium spot!
I’m not so sure I’d be camping out overnight for a premium tailgating spot (or for anything for that matter), but I will show up when the food is ready! And, I might even bring a vegetarian dish like these Spicy Veggie Burger Stuffed Sweet Potatoes to share! These Spicy Veggie Burger Stuffed Sweet Potatoes are super simple to make! I cut up one grilled veggie burger from the MorningStar Farms® Spicy Black Bean Burger Value Pack and one from the MorningStar Farms® Garden Veggie Burger pack I picked up at Walmart. By the way, you can make use of this Ibotta® Coupon when picking up three of your favorite MorningStar Farms® products!
I sauteed up that MorningStar Farms® Spicy Black Bean Burger as well as that MorningStar Farms® Garden Veggie Burger with some caramelized onions, crispy mushrooms, honey, chili powder, coriander, cumin, salt, pepper, and cilantro and stuffed the mixture into some baked and sliced sweet potatoes. The combination of the spiced onions, mushrooms and veggie burgers with the sweet potatoes was the perfect balance, but, sometimes, my daughter enjoys that mixture sans the sweet potatoes.
My daughter is a vegetarian and we often have a Smörgåsbord of MorningStar Farms® products in our freezer! If you happen to peek into our freezer right now, you will find MorningStar Farms® Spicy Black Bean Burgers (which have the honor of being touted “America’s #1 Veggie Burger”) as well as MorningStar Farms® Garden Veggie Burgers, MorningStar Farms® Original Chik Patties, and MorningStar Farms® Buffalo Chik Patties! My daughter is a huge proponent of the fact that veggie foods can be part of our lives in exciting times such as homegating and tailgating get-togethers, while still preserving the spirit of grilling out.
While I’m not a vegetarian myself, when she’s off at college, I often find myself enjoying eggs, greens and a MorningStar Farms® Spicy Black Bean Burger. Yes, you could say that MorningStar Farms® products are a convenient and delicious “as-is” meal solution for vegetarians and non-vegetarians alike. Next time you are at Walmart, grab yourself a few MorningStar Farms® products and “Grill it to believe it” yourself!

So delicious! I had lots of sweet potatoes last days too. Need to make some stuffed ones soon.
What a great idea to stuff those sweet potatoes with this tasty filling! That’s my kind of good eats…no matter whether I’m tailgating at a football game or back home watching on tv. (Lately, it’s been all tv games for me as college football just isn’t as popular up here in the north…crazy, I know.) That filling sounds super delicious, and this is one excellent way to serve up those MorningStar Farms burgers. Yum! 🙂
Hearing about how much damage was done in the ATL was crazy!! Glad you are okay. And these sweet potatoes + Veggie Burgers are all kind of my dream meal.
What a gorgeous meal!!! I love sweet potatoes and this looks so inviting!!
Yessss I love stuffed sweet potatoes! These look amazing! I hope Morning Star will come out with a GF option soon!
What a clever way of using them! We always have veggie burgers in the freezer, it’s nice to see a different serving suggestion for them.
You know, I actually bought some sweet potatoes this week…for this exact reason. Baked, stuffed sweet potatoes are such a fun meal option. I have some veggie burgers in the freezer…thanks so much for the idea to use them this way.
These Stuffed Sweet Potatoes look amazing! I can’t wait to give these a try for our next football gathering. Thanks for sharing!
It definitely has been much cooler by us lately – which is kinda odd since I feel like in years past the heat stays through September! ANYWAY these stuffed sweet potatoes sound delicious! And just too fun!
Look at all the lovely sauted veggies stuffed into those sweet potatoes! Yum. And, what a great idea to chop up those three different kind of burgers Shashi! You take a mouthful and you don’t know what bits of chopped up burger you might get. That’s a taste sensation delight to me!
These are gorgeous stuffed sweet potatoes my friend. I could eat these for breakfast. Or any other time of day for that matter. I love getting healthy, beautiful dishes on my table quickly. Thanks for all the great inspiration from Morning Star. And I might just have some boys at my house suddenly interested in befriending your daughter for discount football tickets! LOL
I could happily make a meal out of these. They sound so flavorful and delicious! They’d also make a great game day food.
