  • tbsp (45 mL) olive oil

  • ¼ cup (60 mL) red onion, sliced

Directions

  1. Pre-heat oven to 400° F (200° C). Cut sweet potato into 4 length-wise planks. Cut peppers into chunks. Toss sweet potato and peppers in half of the olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Bake in the oven for 25-30 minutes.
  2. Prepare Cracker Barrel® 4 Mexiqueso Cheese Sauce as per package directions, and set aside keeping it warm.
  3. Season steak with spices and lime juice. Grill on barbeque or sauté on pan with remaining olive oil, until desired amount of doneness is achieved. Allows steak to sit for 5 – 10 minutes, then slice into thin strips.
  4. To achieve the stack, divide all elements into four portions. For each stack, start with a sweet potato plank, followed by chunks of peppers, red onion slices, avocado slices, then strips of steak. Ladle on the Cracker Barrel® 4 Mexiqueso Cheese Sauce and garnish with cilantro sprigs.
