  3. Prepare the black bean filling by mixing black beans, tomatoes, corn, cilantro, onion, garlic, lime juice, salt, pepper, and chili flakes.
  4. Mash avocado with lime juice and a pinch of salt to make guacamole.
  5. Mix coconut yogurt, additional lime juice, and salt for the vegan sour cream.
  6. Cut baked sweet potatoes in half and fluff the insides. Fill with the black bean mixture, top with guacamole and vegan sour cream.
