If you’re looking for a new side dish or appetizer recipe to bring your next holiday dinner with family or potluck with friends, you’ve come to the right place. Introducing our Super Stuffed Sweet Potatoes, a tasty dish that will certainly impress your guests.

To start, preheat your oven to 400 °F. While your oven heats up, begin slicing up the sweet potatoes lengthwise and hollow out the skins. Separate the potato skin from the flesh and save these for later.

To make the flavorful dressing for the recipe. Turn on your food processor and blend lemon zest, lemon juice, basil, garlic, honey, crushed red pepper, salt and pepper. Next, slowly drizzle olive oil into the processor.

Now it’s time to use the potato flesh you saved from earlier. In a large mixing bowl, combine the potato insides, quinoa, Brussels sprouts, almonds, cranberries and kale. These ingredients are not only tasty and crunchy, but they’re rich in antioxidants and nutrients. Add ½ cup of dressing and stir into your mixing bowl.

Stuff the potato skins you saved earlier with the potato mixture you just made. The finishing touches are topping the potatoes with parmesan cheese and baking until the cheese is melted.

These Super Stuffed Sweet Potatoes are scrumptious and packed with flavor. Serve them along with your Thanksgiving turkey or enjoy them on their own.
