Directions

Preheat the oven to 425.
Drizzle olive oil on the bottom of a large sheet pan, season with salt and pepper, and place the sweet potatoes face down. Drizzle the tops with the oil and season with salt. Place in the oven for about 40 minutes, flipping halfway.
While the sweet potatoes roast, make the tuna salad. Add the Wild Planet Wild Tuna White Bean Salad, tomatoes, fresh basil and Parmesan cheese to a medium bowl. Use a fork to break apart the tuna, mix all ingredients together and set aside.
When the sweet potatoes are done roasting, remove them from the oven and gently mash each one down with a fork to create a slight divot in the center. Top each sweet potato with a slice or two of the mozzarella. Next, divide the tuna mixture equally and spoon on top of the mozzarella. Place the sweet potatoes back in the oven for about 8-10 minutes until cheese is melted
Top the sweet potatoes with extra Parmesan cheese, the scallions and the pistachios, if using.
