Recipe Box, Rosemary Parmesan Sweet Potato Boats
This is an easy way to fix sweet potatoes, no peeling, no fuss, just tummy satisfying goodness!
Wash potato, plan on 1/2 large potato per person, and wrap in a towel
Microwave for 6 minutes on high. Potato should be cooked through but not mushy and still hold it’s shape
Cut potato in half and then make deep parallel cuts across the potatoes forming diamond shapes, and being careful not to cut through the skin
Place potatoes in a sprayed baking dish
Drizzle with olive oil and dot with butter~ it will melt down into the nooks and crannies
Season with salt and pepper. You can refrigerate at this point for baking later if desired
Bake at 400 for 20 minutes. Remove from oven and sprinkle with rosemary and Parmesan
Return to oven to heat through and melt cheese
