I absolutely ADORE Sweet potatos and Yams...such a wonderful tasty and healthy alternative to normal ones....

here's what I do:

Preheat oven to 450°, bake your sweet potatoes until they are nice and soft when u poke them with a knife.
Take em out, and let them cool down for a bit.
then slice your chosen potato und stuff it with either a low fat string cheese or in my case today a 35 cal laughing cow cheese wedge...stick your stuffed potato into the microwave on full blast for about 40 seconds. Season it with ground black pepper und drizzle a little low sodium soy sauce onto it... ET VOILÁ!!! <3<3<3

Depending on what size potato you use and what kind of cheese this delicious meal will add up to something in between 150-200 cals. And one of them is ever so filling and satisfying =)

Enjoy!!!
