Broccoli Cheddar Stuffed Sweet Potatoes
I think we all know what’s important in life. Food that you can melt cheese on top of. Tonight, I wanted a dinner that was simple, flavorful, and didn’t require a lot of effort on my part.

Sloppy Joe Stuffed Sweet Potatoes
There comes a moment when I’m putting together a recipe when I pause and close my eyes and imagine how it’s going to taste when it’s complete. Not too often do they come out EXACTLY as my tastebuds had envisioned but this was one of those recipes that did. If I could pick a food to live on for the rest of my life, sweet potatoes might just be it. Punctured with a fork, wrapped in foil, and baked at 400* for 45 minutes and I’m in potato heaven. I love carbs, but I digress. This turkey sloppy joe meat could be served on whole grain rolls as a sandwich,…

Oh how I love Meatless Monday dinners! For our family it can be a challenge to come up with a healthy, flavorful meat free meal that my husband (a meat and potatoes guy) will eat and enjoy!

These loaded sweet potatoes are excellent for keeping that full feeling afterward without the harsh effects on your waistline! Ingredients: 4 small/medium sweet potatoes 1/2 cup black beans, cooked 1/2 cup…
