Things To Grab

  • Microwave-safe plate

Directions

  1. Scrub sweet potatoes; pat dry. Pierce all over with a fork. Place potatoes on a microwave-safe plate. Microwave on HIGH for 7 to 9 minutes, turning and rotating potatoes halfway through cooking. If potatoes are not fork-tender, continue microwaving and turning every 30 seconds.

  2. Remove sweet potatoes from microwave and let cool for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, heat protein blend in microwave according to package directions.

  3. Cut potatoes lengthwise, keep them intact. Pinch sides together to squeeze and open centers. Fluff flesh with a fork and mound slightly. Spoon protein blend into each potato. Top with desired toppers. Sprinkle with chili powder and garnish with cilantro, if desired. Serve with lime wedges.
