Stuffed Sweet Potato

Ingredients

• 1 lb grass fed sausage (browned)
• 4 sweet potatoes
• 2 red bell peppers (chopped)
• 1 medium onion (finely chopped)
• salt and pepper to taste (about 1/2 tsp of each)
• 2 Tablespoon extra virgin olive oil

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 400 F and line a baking sheet with foil.

   Thoroughly scrub and rinse sweet potatoes. Prick potatoes multiple times with a fork or knife and rub with oil. This helps the sweet potatoes to separate from the skin.

3. 3

   Bake potatoes at 400 F for about 45 minutes or until tender.

4. 4

   While the potatoes are baking, prepare the filling. Brown the sausage, chop onion and red bell pepper

5. 5

   Heat 1 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil on medium high heat and add the vegetables. Season with a dash of salt. Saute the vegetables for about 5 minutes until onion is translucent. Stir in browned sausage and cook a couple of minutes.

6. 6

   Make a slit on top of each sweet potato and top with filling.
