Zucchini and Goat Cheese stuffed Sweet Potatoes image

The cheese contrasts wonderfully with the subtle sweetness of the potato. This is a great vegetarian side dish that I also ate as a lite meal. I think even the non-veg may enjoy this simple to prepare "stuffed" sweet potato

Time 40m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 medium sweet potatoes
2 tablespoons margarine
2 medium zucchini, halved lengthwise and thinly sliced
3 -4 scallions, thinly sliced
1/3 cup creamy goat cheese
1 pinch salt

Steps:

  • Bake or microwave the sweet potatoes until done but still firm.
  • When cool enough to handle, cut each in half lengthwise.
  • Scoop out the inside of each potato half, leaving a sturdy shell, about 1/4 inch thick all around.

  • Heat the margarine in a medium skillet.
  • Add the zucchini and sauté, stirring frequently, until it is golden and tender.
  • Add the scallions and sauté for another minute or so.
  • Combine the zucchini mixture with the mashed sweet potato in the mixing bowl.
  • Add the goat cheese and salt, and stir well to combine.
  • Stuff the mixture back into the potato shells.
  • Heat as needed in the microwave or in a preheated 400-degree oven, and serve.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my dish turned out mushy. I think I overcooked the sweet potatoes.

I had a hard time finding goat cheese at my local grocery store. I ended up using feta cheese instead and it was still delicious.

This dish was a little bland for my taste. I would add more spices next time.

I'm not a big fan of zucchini, but I was pleasantly surprised by this dish. The zucchini was cooked perfectly and the goat cheese added a nice tang. I'll definitely be making this again.
