Here are my deliciously nutritious & warming Sweet potato Jackets. They are so easy and the great thing about these recipes is that if you don’t use it all you can use them in so Many other ways also.
These are great if you have friends and family over and a winner for kids too. A perfect Monday meal, as any left overs can be used for the following days lunches.
THE SWEET POTATO JACKETS
For the sweet potatoes pick as many as you need, simply Heat the oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7, pierce each potato with a knife a couple times and put them baking tray roast for 45 mins or until tender all the way through when pierced with a knife.
THE TOPPINGS
Here below are some recommendations for the toppings, you can choose just one if you prefer, but like I said before I like to make them all up and store any leftovers in the fridge for future meals. They are all super easy and real tasty. I hope you enjoy.
