Bruschetta Sweet Potatoes
Fluffy, flavorful sweet potatoes packed with juicy ripe bruschetta topping and drizzled with a balsamic glaze, these Bruschetta Sweet Potatoes are amazing!
Ingredients
- 4 sweet potato small
- 2 cups diced tomato
- 2 garlic cloves, smashed and minced
- 1 jalapeño (seeded and diced)
- 1/4-1/2 cup cucumber (peeled + diced)
- ¼ cup onion finely diced or minced, white or red
- 2 TBSP extra virgin olive oil
- 2 TBSP white balsamic vinegar or red wine vinegar
- 5 basil large leaves, chopped or chiffonade
- 1 tsp parsley fresh chopped
- ¼ tsp salt (plus any extra to taste)
- ⅛ tsp garlic powder
- 2-3 TBSP feta cheese as much or as little as you'd like, crumbled
- balsamic glaze (for an optional drizzle)
Instructions
- Bake or microwave your sweet potato[-es] and get started on the bruschetta!
- This goes especially quickly if you've make a big batch of bruschetta topping to use in recipes all week long! I almost always have a batch chilling in my fridge just waiting to make my life easy =)
- While your potato is cooking, whip up the bruschetta topping!
- Chop/dice/mince the veggies and whisk together oil, vinegar, and your choice of herbs/seasoning.
- Then simply toss it together and set aside.
- Once the potato is ready, slice lengthwise and fluff the inside with a fork.
- Stuff with your bruschetta topping and top with an optional sprinkle of feta cheese and a hearty drizzle of balsamic or balsamic glaze.
- Commence faceplant.
Notes
- vegansaurus chefs: skip the feta and have at it!
- t-rex chefs: grab some leftover chicken or turkey, shred it up, and pile it on!
