Try adding a stuffed potato to your Summer grilling menu. These potatoes are so satisfying, they can also be a meal themselves! Never had veggies inside a potato before? Don't worry- tender vegetables work well with a soft potato. You'll never look back. If it's too cold for the grill, roast your potatoes in the oven and proceed with the vegetable stuffing.

Beef and Broccoli Stuffed Sweet Potatoes

Beef and Broccoli Stuffed Sweet Potatoes Recipe

Russets aren't the only spuds worth stuffing. Smoke and heat, achieved with chili powder and ground red pepper, work particularly well with sweet potatoes. The melted cheese on top pulls all the flavors together and seals in the stuffed components. This makes for a great side dish, or served open-faced as a light main.
