The recipe below makes 2 small servings from 1 sweet potato so it’s perfect when you’re cooking for yourself to have a night catching up on Gossip Girl and watching Leven on Grey’s.

Ingredients:

1 medium sweet potato, cut length-wise
2 tsp. EVOO

1/2 onion, diced
1/2 medium zucchini diced
1 can of beans, drained and rinsed (I used Borlotti Beans)

Here’s What You Do:

1. 1. In a preheat oven place the sweet potato w/ 1 tsp of EVOO over each half at 200/400.
2. Bake for 30-35 minutes until the middle is soft
3. While they sweet potatoes are roasting, in a frying pan melt down the spread over medium-high heat.
4. Add onions and zucchini and sauté for about 5 minutes, until soft
5. Salt and pepper (I used about 1tsp. of salt and 1 tsp. of better)
6. Add the can of beans and cook for about five minutes (may need to add a hint of water)
7. When the sweet potatoes are soft in the middle, scoop out the middle and place into the bean mixture.
8. Mash down the beans with the sweet potatoes a bit with a fork.
9. Spoon the ‘guts’ back into the shells of the potatoes and place into a reduced heat oven, 180/350, for about 10 minutes.
10. Enjoy
