  • Total Time: 1 hour 10 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 medium sweet potatoes
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 2 cups mushrooms, sliced (cremini or button)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 cups fresh spinach
  • 1 ripe avocado, diced
  • 1/3 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Optional: red pepper flakes, lemon juice, fresh herbs

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Pierce sweet potatoes with a fork and bake on a sheet for 45–60 minutes, until tender.
  2. In a skillet over medium heat, warm olive oil. Add onion and cook 3–4 minutes until translucent.
  3. Add mushrooms and sauté until browned and moisture has evaporated, about 6–8 minutes.
  4. Stir in garlic and cook 1 more minute.
  5. Add spinach and cook just until wilted. Season with salt and pepper.
  6. Slice open baked sweet potatoes lengthwise and fluff the insides with a fork.
  7. Divide the spinach and mushroom mixture evenly among the sweet potatoes.
  8. Top each with crumbled feta and diced avocado.
  9. Optional: add a drizzle of olive oil, a squeeze of lemon, or a sprinkle of chili flakes.
  10. Serve warm or cool and store for later.

Notes

  • For extra protein, add chickpeas, black beans, or grilled chicken.
  • Make it vegan by omitting feta or using a vegan alternative.
  • Try different greens like kale or arugula instead of spinach.
  • Top with balsamic glaze, tahini, or toasted seeds for more flavor and crunch.
  • Double the sautéed veggie filling and use leftovers for quick lunches.
