SAVORY TWICE BAKED SWEET POTATOES
I was looking for an easy dinner that didn't involve a trip to the grocery store, and this is what I came up with based on what I had lying around. This is a pretty nice way to prepare a sweet potato, if you aren't in the mood for something overly sweet. I paired half of a potato with a large serving of steamed spinach for a light but satisfying vegetarian dinner.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375°F.
- Wash sweet potato and cut in half lengthwise.
- Place potato halves face down on a foil-covered greased cookie sheet ( i cover the potato halves in foil for more even cooking).
- Bake potatoes for about 30 minutes.
- While the potatoes are baking, saute onions and mushrooms in the olive oil over medium heat until the onions are translucent and the mushrooms give off liquid, about 10 minutes.
- Take potatoes out of oven, carefully scoop the potato out of the skins and mash in a mixing bowl.
- Add onions, mushroom, cayenne, feta, salt and pepper to the mashed sweet potatoes, mixing ingredients together.
- Divide mixture in half and scoop it back into the empty potato skins.
- Bake the potatoes for another 8-10 minutes on 375, broiling for the last minute or two of cooking time if you'd like to crisp the tops of the potatoes slightly.
