This yummy and healthy recipe has my mouth watering! It’s nice to turn potato skins into a healthy snack!

INGREDIENTS
3 sweet potatoes (8 ounces each), well scrubbed
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese (2 ounces)
1/2 teaspoon chipotle or other chili powder
lime wedges, for serving

DIRECTIONS
Preheat the oven to 425°F.

Place the sweet potatoes on a foil-lined baking sheet and bake for 1 hour, or until fork-tender but not mushy. Reduce the oven temperature to 400°F.

When the sweet potatoes are cool enough to handle, halve lengthwise and scoop out most of the flesh, leaving a 1/4-inch shell.

Then halve them lengthwise again.

Drizzle olive oil over the flesh side of the potatoes.

Bake, flesh-side down, for 20 minutes.

Turn flesh-side up and sprinkle with the feta and chipotle powder.

Bake for 5 minutes, or until the skins are crisp and the cheese has melted.

Serve with lime wedges.
