Ingredients

> 1 (24 oz) pkg simply spuds steamables sweet potatoes
> ½ (5 oz) pkg baby kale
> 1 tbsp olive oil
> 1 tbsp minced garlic
> 1 tbsp lemon juice
> 1 cup cooked red quinoa
> ⅓ cup shredded low-fat Cheddar cheese

Steps

1
Prepare the sweet potatoes in the microwave according to package directions. Meanwhile, coarsely chop the baby kale and set aside. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a heavy-bottomed skillet and cook garlic with salt (in moderation) and pepper for 1 min., or until fragrant. Add the kale and sauté for 4 min., or until soft and wilted. Stir in the lemon juice.
2
Mix the cooked quinoa in with the greens and cook just enough to warm. Cut a small slit in the top of each sweet potato, taking care not to chop them in half.
3
Stuff the quinoa-kale mixture into the potatoes and top with the cheddar cheese. Set on a baking sheet and broil for 5 min. or until cheese has melted.

Tips
