Ingredients
- 1 medium sweet potato
- 1 tsp olive oil
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 2 cups (lightly packed) spinach, thinly sliced
- 1 tbsp hummus
- 2 tbsp feta cheese
- ¼ tsp ground pepper
Instructions
- With a fork, pierce the sweet potato in several places. Place the sweet potato in the microwave, on top of a piece of paper towel, and cook for 3 minutes per side (about 6 minutes total), or until the sweet potato is tender when pierced with a fork.
- Let the sweet potato cool for several minutes, or until cool enough to handle. Cut in half lengthwise.
- Carefully scoop out the flesh of the potato and place in a medium-sized bowl. Reserve the skins.
- With the back of a fork, mash the potato flesh until most lumps are gone.
- Heat the olive oil in a small skillet set over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds.
- Add the spinach and cook, stirring, until the spinach is wilted, about 1 minute.
- Add the spinach mixture to the mashed sweet potato, along with the hummus, feta cheese and ground pepper. Stir gently to combine.
- Scoop the sweet potato mixture into the reserved sweet potato skins. Serve.
