Stuffed Sweet Potatoes

POINTS: 3
MAKES: 4 servings
CRISPY RATING: A great flavor combo

Ingredients
  • 1 1/2 pounds sweet potatoes, 4 small
  • 8 oz canned pineapple, crushed
  • 1 1/2 Tbsp light butter
  • 1/4 cup orange juice
  • salt and pepper, to taste

1. Bake potatoes 45-60 minutes until fork can easily pierce the potato

2. When done remove from oven and cool slightly.

3. Cut a slit along top of potatoes and scoop out pulp.

4. With an electric beater mix potato pulp with remaining ingredients until mixture is smooth and fluffy.

5. Spoon mixture back into potatoes and put back in oven for 10 minutes to warm up.

MY NOTES AND THOUGHTS:

The citrus flavor blends so well with the sweetness of the sweet potatoes, and they're really healthy.

These look particularly great if you take the time to use a pastry bag and fancy tip to pipe the filling back into the sweet potato shells.
