Ingredients:

  • Medium sweet potatoes
  • 2 cups goat cheese
  • 1/2 cup sweet potato, scooped from inside
  • 1 clove of garlic, minced
  • 1 red onion, finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt, pepper, and lemon to taste
  • Optional toppings: chopped green onions, sour cream, or avocado

Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven:

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

2. Bake Sweet Potatoes:

Wash the sweet potatoes thoroughly and pat them dry.

Cut them in half lengthwise and place them on a baking sheet.

Bake for 45-60 minutes until tender.

3. Prepare Filling Mixture:

Once baked, carefully scoop out the inside of each sweet potato, leaving a thin layer attached to the skin.

In a bowl, combine the scooped sweet potato, goat cheese, minced garlic, chopped red onion, and olive oil.

Mix well until you get a creamy consistency.

4. Season and Fill:

Season the mixture with salt, pepper, and a squeeze of lemon to taste.

Fill each sweet potato skin with the creamy goat cheese and sweet potato mixture.

5. Optional Toppings:

Customize with your preferred toppings like chopped green onions, a dollop of sour cream, or slices of avocado.

6. Bake Again:

Place the filled sweet potatoes back in the oven for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the tops are slightly golden.
