I love sweet potatoes and always wanted to make a dish that was a loaded sweet potato. I decided to treat the Sweet Potato as a pita and loaded with Berbere Spiced Lamb, Lemony Chickpeas and Yogurt.

Why everybody loves this meal

Loved this! Could have used more yogurt sauce, but the lamb was well browned and seasoned. The spicy lamb with sweet potato was a great combo.

At first I was disappointed because the lamb was ground but after tasting it, it just worked! The chickpeas were so creamy that I’m wondering how they were prepared. Really good & unique dish.

This was high in Sodium, but it rocked in taste. Sweet potatoes that melt in your mouth, lamb and spiced chickpeas with a slightly sour yogurt dressing. Yum!

Maggie · 04/08/23

Probably the most filling meal I've gotten so far. The seasoning was excellent.
