Notes

  • Use any type of sweet potato that you like, or even yams. Make sure they are all approximately the same size so that they cook at the same time.
  • Follow the steps above for perfectly roasting sweet potato halves. You can alternatively microwave or boil them. However, roasting them creates a sweet rich complex taste of sweet potatoes that's unparalleled.
  • Make sure to roast the sweet potatoes cut side down. We prefer lining our sheet with parchment paper to avoid sticking.
  • When roasting is done, use a small fork to mash the insides of the sweet potatoes. This creates space to load the filling on top. It also blends the soft mashed veggie beautifully with whatever topping you're using. 
  • These are best served once you have loaded them fully, however here's how to prep in advance. 
  • Make Taco stuffed potatoes!  taco filling following our Ground Beef Tacos, Lamb Tacos, or Ground Chicken Tacos. This makes a great main dish! Don't forget a drizzle of Nacho Cheese Sauce!
  • This recipe is naturally gluten free, and to make it dairy free, use vegan or dairy free cheese and yogurt.
  • Add in Veggies. Roast veggies similar to our Pasta Primavera, and stuff them. 
  • Turn them into nachos, add in all the Nachos ingredients.
  • Follow the Philly Cheesesteak Sliders and stuff with Philly cheesesteak. Top with some cheese and bake at 350 degrees F for 5 minutes to melt the cheese, and serve right away!
  • Serve with cold with our phenomenal Tuna Salad Recipe with Olive Oil Dressing! 
  • Roasting the sweet potatoes is the most time consuming step in this recipe. You can roast them in advance, store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. You can likewise freeze them, well wrapped for 3 months.
  • To stuff them, thaw if frozen and remove from the fridge if just chilled. Place the sweet potatoes on a baking sheet in a preheated oven at 350 degrees F for 10-12 minutes until warmed through. Proceed to fill them as above.
  • Absolutely yes. However you'll miss out on the sweetness of the sweet potatoes, which is unbeatable in our opinion. For regular potatoes, we recommend  Baked Potato Soup, Scalloped Potatoes.  Also Potato Pancakes or Air Fryer Baked Potato.
