Recipe: Grilled Sweet Potatoes

Sweet Potatoes Stuffed With Peach Cilantro Salsa

Sweet potatoes don't always have to be cooked in the microwave or oven. Layering them atop a heated grill is just as effective for softening the insides. There's also the option to sweeten up your already sweet potatoes by stuffing them with a fruity peach cilantro salsa before serving as a side dish. Yields 4 servings.

1. Prepare and combine all the ingredients except for the sweet potatoes. Mix well.
2. Refrigerate several hours or overnight to allow flavors to blend.
3. Wash 4 medium sweet potatoes and place in microwave. Cook on high 3 minutes.
4. Rub outside of skins with butter or vegetable oil.
5. Grill over medium hot coals about 8-10 minutes, turning frequently so skins won't burn. Test if done with a toothpick or skewer.
6. Make an incision into the middle of each potato, spoon ample amounts of salsa into centers and serve.
