Ingredients
- 4 sweet potatoes, washed
- 2 Tbsp. Heinen's olive oil
- 1 tsp. salt
- 1/2 package Heinen’s pre-cut broccoli florets

- 1/2 tsp. Heinen’s garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp. black pepper
- 1 cup Heinen’s cheddar cheese

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F. Cut the sweet potatoes lengthwise and place them, flesh-side-down, on a lined baking sheet.
- Drizzle 2 Tbsp. of olive oil over the sweet potatoes and season with 1 tsp. of salt. Bake for 25-30 minutes, until tender. Add 1/2 package of Heinen’s pre-cut broccoli florets to the pan halfway through baking.
- Remove the tray from the oven. In a large bowl, scoop out the sweet potato flesh and set the skins aside.
- Combine the sweet potato, broccoli, 1/2 tsp. of Heinen’s onion powder, 1/2 tsp. of Heinen’s garlic powder, 1/2 tsp. of black pepper and 1 cup of Heinen’s cheddar cheese. Stir, and transfer the mixture back into the potato skins.
- Broil the stuffed potatoes on a broil-safe baking tray for 3-4 minutes, until the tops are golden brown. Serve with sour cream and fresh thyme.
