Stuffed Baked Sweet Potatoes

Preheat oven to 400° F.

Wash and dry the sweet potatoes and pierce in a few places with a fork. Bake the potatoes 40 minutes or until tender to touch.

In the meantime, in a sauté pan, cook the bacon until crispy. Remove from pan, let cool, and crumble or chop. Set aside.

Add olive oil to the same pan. Add the onion and kale and sauté for 4 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat.

Halve the baked potatoes lengthwise and scoop out ¾ of the flesh from each half into a large bowl. Mash the sweet potato and mix with the kale, onion, bacon, and cheddar cheese. Season with salt and pepper as desired.

Stuff the potato halves with the mixture and return to oven for 10 minutes until heated through and cheese is melted.
