Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 medium sweet potatoes
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 small onion, finely diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 8 oz mushrooms, chopped
  • 2 cups baby spinach
  • 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, finely chopped (or 1/2 teaspoon dried)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt, plus more to taste
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • Optional: extra rosemary or parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Pierce sweet potatoes with a fork a few times. Place on a baking sheet and roast for 40–50 minutes, or until tender. Let cool slightly before handling.
  2. Meanwhile, heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Sauté onions for 2–3 minutes until translucent. Add garlic and cook for 30 seconds. Stir in mushrooms and cook until they release their moisture and brown, about 5–7 minutes. Add spinach and rosemary; cook until spinach wilts. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from heat and stir in half of the feta.
  3. Slice each sweet potato open lengthwise without cutting all the way through. Fluff the insides with a fork. Spoon the spinach-mushroom mixture into the potatoes. Sprinkle the remaining feta over the top.
  4. Garnish with a sprinkle of fresh rosemary or parsley if desired. Serve warm and enjoy!

Notes

  • Add Protein: Toss in cooked quinoa, chickpeas, or shredded chicken for a protein boost.

  • Make Ahead: Bake the sweet potatoes and prepare the filling in advance; assemble just before serving.
