Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 medium sweet potatoes
  • 2 balls of burrata cheese (about 6 oz each)
  • 1/2 cup toasted walnuts, roughly chopped
  • 1/2 cup fresh sage leaves
  • 1/4 cup pine nuts (or walnuts)
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Wash and dry the sweet potatoes thoroughly, pricking them several times with a fork. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake until tender, approximately 45 minutes.
  2. While the sweet potatoes bake, prepare the sage pesto by blending fresh sage leaves, pine nuts (or walnuts), garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, and optional Parmesan cheese until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  3. Once baked, let the sweet potatoes cool slightly before slicing them open and fluffing the insides with a fork. Fill each potato with burrata cheese, drizzle generously with sage pesto, and top with toasted walnuts.
  4. Serve warm, garnished with fresh parsley if desired.
