Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400°F.
Slice the sweet potato in half. Put the olive oil in the bottom of baking dish and rub it over the cut halves (both cut side and skin). Sprinkle with salt and pepper and put the sweet potatoes cut side down in the dish.
Bake for about 45 minutes until the flesh has started to soften.
Meanwhile, rinse and drain the beans and combine them in a small bowl with the grated Parmesan, garlic, and rosemary.
When the sweet potatoes have softened, flip them over so they are cut side up and top with the bean mixture. Bake for 5 to 10 minutes, until the beans have warmed and the cheese has melted. Serve immediately.

Notes

Vary this baked purple sweet potato recipe by using different beans and cheeses.
Estimate one half to one whole sweet potato per person depending on the size of your sweet potatoes and whether you are serving this as a main course or side dish.
