Sweet Potato Boats Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375ºF.
• Slice each baked sweet potato in half lengthwise and scoop out enough of each inside to make room for an egg. Brush with the oil inside and out.
• Arrange the sweet potatoes in a baking dish and crack an egg into the hollow created in each sweet potato. Sprinkle with the salt, then transfer to the oven. Bake for 8-10 minutes, until the eggs are set to your liking.
• Meanwhile, make a relish by combining the parsley, cilantro, capers, raisins, shallot, and lemon juice in a small bowl. Taste and add vinegar a little at a time until just tangy enough for your taste buds.
• Serve each egg boat topped with relish.

Steps:

• Use a fork to pierce holes all over the sweet potatoes.
• Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
• Microwave the potatoes for 7 minutes until they have softened significantly.
• Slice the potatoes in half and use a spoon to scrape out the inner flesh, making sure to leave at least a ¼-inch (6 mm) thick border on each side, saving the scooped out potato parts to use for side dishes.
• Transfer the potatoes to a parchment paper-lined baking sheet.
• Fill each of the potatoes with 1 egg and an assortment of fillings for whatever flavor combinations you'd like. Season each potatoes with salt and pepper.
• Bake for 8-12 minutes, until the egg has cooked to preferred doneness.
• Top the potatoes and side dishes with your choice of topping and garnishes and serve.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Bake the sweet potatoes in their skins.
• Allow them to cool.
• When the potatoes are cool, slice them in half lengthwise and gently scoop out the flesh, leaving behind enough to hold the shell together.
• In a food processor, grind the cranberries.
• Then add the raisins, walnuts, honey, cinnamon and the reserved sweet potato and process until well mixed.
• Mound the filling back into the sweet potato shells and bake in a 350°F oven for 20 minutes.
• If the potatoes are large, slice each boat in half before serving.
