Drunken Stuffed Sweet Potatoes Recipes

BEEFY STUFFED SWEET POTATO

Steps:

• Poke each sweet potato a few times and microwave until fork tender, about 10 minutes, rotating about halfway through. Set aside and keep warm.
• Combine the chopped carrots, onions, tomatoes, garlic, 2 tablespoons of the vinegar, cumin, 1 teaspoon salt, oregano, cayenne and a few grinds of black pepper in a food processor; pulse until coarsely chopped. Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, add the vegetable mixture and cook, stirring constantly, until dry, 3 to 4 minutes. Add 1/4 cup water and cook, scraping up any brown bits with a wooden spoon, until the water evaporates, about 1 minute. Add the ground beef and cook, stirring and breaking it up into smaller chunks, until browned and cooked through, about 4 minutes. Remove from the heat.
• Split the potatoes in half, scoop out some of the warm flesh and add it to the beef mixture; stir to combine. Divide the potato halves among four plates and generously fill each half with the beef-potato mixture. Toss the shredded carrots with the cilantro, the remaining 1 teaspoon vinegar and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl. Divide the carrot slaw among the four plates.

SOUTHWEST STUFFED SWEET POTATOES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425°F. Prick sweet potatoes on all sides with fork; place on 15x10x1-inch pan. Bake 40 to 50 minutes or until potatoes are tender when pierced in center with fork.
• Meanwhile, in small bowl, mix avocado, 1/2 teaspoon of the lime juice, 1 tablespoon of the cilantro and 1/8 teaspoon of the salt. Mash with fork to chunky consistency. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
• In 10-inch nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add onion, poblano chile, bell pepper and tomatoes. Cook 5 to 6 minutes or until tomatoes are soft and other vegetables are crisp-tender. Add beans, taco seasoning mix, remaining 1/8 teaspoon salt, remaining 1 teaspoon lime juice and the water. Cook and stir 3 to 4 minutes or until completely heated through and slightly thickened.
• Split potatoes open; divide bean mixture among potatoes-they will be very full. Divide avocado mixture among potatoes; top with remaining 1 tablespoon cilantro.

STUFFED SWEET POTATOES

Steps:

• Bake sweet potato in a 375°F. oven until tender, about 1 hour. Cut thin slice from the top of each potato, lengthwise, and carefully scoop out the insides. Mash. Sauté mushrooms in 4 tablespoons butter. Add to potatoes. Add remaining ingredients except butter. Mix well. Stuff potato skins with the mixture. Dot with remaining butter. Bake in 375°F. oven until brown--about 20 minutes. (This may be baked in a greased casserole instead of the potato skins if desired.)

• Line the edges of the casserole with the mini marshmallows.
• Bake at 350F for 45 minutes or until the sauce is a very dark brown.
