This recipe is delicious! Very easy to make. I didn't use the skins as pictured, but made a mash. I've also used this recipe as a topping on a ground beef mexican inspired casserole and my husband loved it (he normally doesn't "like" sweet potatoes). Great recipe!
Twice-Roasted Sweet Potatoes with Chipotle
Look for similar-sized sweet potatoes so they'll cook at an even rate. To make ahead, stuff the potato halves, cover, and refrigerate up to one day. Set out at room temperature as the oven preheats to take the chill off.
