Smoky Bacon and Chipotle Sweet Potatoes image

Sweet potatoes are delicious as a savory side. I like them much better this way than with loads of sugar. I've made sweet potatoes semi-"twice baked" before and with furthering tweaking came up with this. Hope you enjoy!

This recipe was a bit bland for my taste. I think I would have liked it more if I had added more chipotle powder.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my sweet potatoes turned out mushy. The bacon-chipotle sauce was good, though.

Overall, this was a good recipe. The sweet potatoes were cooked perfectly and the bacon-chipotle sauce was flavorful. However, I would have liked the sauce to be a bit thicker.

Not bad! The sweet potatoes were a bit dry, but the bacon-chipotle sauce was delicious. I would try this recipe again with a different cooking method for the sweet potatoes.

I was a bit hesitant to try this recipe because I'm not a big fan of chipotle, but I'm so glad I did! The chipotle added just the right amount of heat and smokiness to the sweet potatoes. I will definitely be making this again.
