Sausage & Apple Stuffed Twice-Baked Sweet Potatoes
Makes 4 servings
Ingredients
2 medium uncooked sweet potatoes
1 tsp olive oil
½ cup shallot, minced
6 oz, cooked smoked chicken and apple sausage, chopped
1 small, apple, peeled and diced
½ tsp kosher salt
1 tsp fresh sage, chopped (plus a few leaves for garnish)
Shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
4 TB plus 1 tsp shredded part-skin mozzarella cheese, divided
Directions
Preheat oven to 350°F.
Prick a few holes in potatoes with a fork. Place potatoes on a microwave safe plate and cook until tender, about 5 to 7 minutes.
When potatoes have slightly cooled, cut each in half lengthwise, scoop out flesh into a large bowl and mash; reserve potato skins.
Heat oil in a medium nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add shallot; cook, stirring frequently, until softened, about 3 to 5 minutes. Add sausage and apple; cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes.
Add sausage mixture, salt and sage to bowl with potato flesh; stir to combine. Gently fold in 3 Tbsp cheese; evenly divide mixture back into reserved potato skins and sprinkle each with 1 teaspoon remaining cheese. Bake until heated through and cheese is melted, about 10 to 15 minutes. Serve garnished with sage leaves. Yields 1 stuffed potato half per serving.
