Ingredients
4largesweet potatoes
6slicesbacon
4tablespoonsunsalted butter
2scallions, white and light-green parts only, thinly sliced
½cupfreshly grated quesillo (Oaxaca cheese),Monterey Jack, mozzarella, or queso fresco
½cupMexican crema
DirectionsPreheat the oven to 400℉. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.Scrub, dry, and poke the sweet potatoes all over with a fork. Place on the lined baking sheet and bake until tender when pierced with a knife, 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes.Meanwhile, line a plate with paper towels and set near the stove. Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the bacon (try to get it in a single layer but it’s okay if the pieces overlap a bit … they will shrink as they cook) and fry, flipping as needed, until nice and crispy, 10 to 15 minutes. Use tongs to transfer to the paper towels to drain. When cool, either crumble with your fingers or roughly chop with a knife.Remove the potatoes from the oven, cut a slit about halfway down the center (unless you want to have people cut them open at the table like we used to do!) and serve with the butter, scallions, bacon, cheese and crema on the side.EatingWell.com, October 2024

Nutrition Facts(per serving)
- Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
