      \nLine a roasting tin with non-stick baking paper.
      \nPlace the sweet potato on the lined tray.

    2. Increase oven temperature to 180\u00b0C (fan-forced).
      \nHalve each potato and scoop out roughly half the flesh to save for another meal (you can mash and freeze it).
      \nCut the potato skins in half lengthways, then season with freshly ground black pepper and rub with the oil.
      \nArrange the potato skins in a single layer in the roasting tin and bake for 15 minutes or until starting to crisp.<\/li>\n
    3. Scatter the beans, salsa and cheese over the potato skins and return to the oven for 10\u201315 minutes or until the cheese is bubbling.
      \nChop the avocado and toss in the lime juice.
      \nTop the potato skins with the avocado mix, coriander and red onion.
      \nServe.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
