parmesan & thyme twice baked sweet potatoes
I originally found this recipe on pinterest, and I would link it but I'm not finding the pin any longer... hum.
Regardless, these sweet potatoes were comforting yet lite, a delightful new spin on a classic potato.
Here is the recipe as I recall it (or modified it)
Ingredients
2 sweet potatoes
1/2 c. nonfat yogurt (I used greek yogurt)
1 small onion chopped
1 clove minced garlic
2 cups chopped spinach or arugula
1 tsp chopped fresh thyme
salt & pepper
3/4 c. shredded parmesan cheese *

1 small onion chopped
1 clove minced garlic
2 cups chopped spinach or arugula
1 tsp chopped fresh thyme
salt & pepper
3/4 c. shredded parmesan cheese *
Instructions
Bake the sweet potatoes at 400 45-50 minutes or until tender. While the potatoes are baking, saute the onion and garlic with olive oil and a little salt and pepper until tender. Add chopped spinach or arugula and cook until wilted. Scoop out the inside of the sweet potatoes and mix with yogurt, thyme, 1/2 c. parmesan cheese, cooked onion mixture and salt & pepper to taste. Put sweet potato mixture back in skins and top with remaining 1/4 c. parmesan cheese. Bake another 10-15 minutes or until cheese is melted.
* feel free to add as much cheese as you like to suit your taste :)
Also, one question to the bloggers out there - how do I label my posts? I've seen other people to do it and I can't seem to figure it out? It would be helpful to be able to be able to categorize the recipes..

ReplyDelete(as far as the labels go...on blogger, right underneath the box where you enter the text for your post you'll see a little place that says "labels". It's right above "publish post" & "post options". hope that helps!)
