I'm not a huge fan of potatoes, but sweet potatoes, are awesome! I always like adding flavor to simple things, to make them extraordinary. I never liked feta or maybe I was scared to try it, but decided to give it a shot one day and turns out, it takes great.
You'll need:
Sweet potato
Feta cheese, crumbled
Chopped spinach, cooked
Chopped Garlic
Salt
Pepper
I like to cook my sweet potato in the oven, but if you're in a hurry, the microwave does just as good to cook it. In the oven, I put the potato on an aluminum foil lined pan and put it in a 400 degree oven for 30-40 minutes depending on how big it is. You can stick a knife in the largest part and if it easily goes through, it's done. In the microwave, I start with 5 minutes and flip it occasionally until a knife slides easily through it. When it's cooked, let it cool slightly so you can handle it. Slice it in half and gently scoop out the potato into a bowl, being careful not to break the skin so you can put it back. Or if you don't care about presentation, just leave it in the bowl. Mash the potato with a potato masher if you have one or just a fork, if you don't. Mix in the feta cheese, spinach and garlic and season it with salt and pepper. Carefully scoop it back into the skin before serving or eat it straight out of the bowl.
