Instructions

Preheat oven to 400°F/240°C. Pierce potatoes several times with a fork and place on a baking tray. Bake for 45-60 minutes, or until softened all the way through.

While potatoes bake, place mushrooms in a food processor fitted with a metal blade. Pulse until finely chopped.

In a large saucepan, brown mushrooms, onion and beef, approximately 10 minutes. Add garlic, Tex-Mex seasoning, adobo peppers and tomatoes. Simmer 15-20 minutes allowing flavours to combine and sauce to thicken.

Split baked potatoes lengthwise and spoon in meat mixture. Top with black beans, corn cheddar cheese and chopped cilantro. Serve with a side of salsa, sour cream and guacamole.
