I have many weaknesses when it comes to food.  Cheese.  Anything cheesy.  I want it ooey, gooey, and golden.  Carbs.  Yup.  Potatoes and pasta pretty much make life worth living.  While we’re at it, let’s make it spicy.  Hot sauce should be it’s own food group, dontcha think?

If I’m speaking your language, then you will DIG these chili stuffed sweet potatoes.  It’s spicy, it’s cheesy, and it’s carby.  Not a word?  Well it should be.

And while it’d be worth a Herculean effort, they’re so good, these Chili Stuffed Sweet Potatoes are one of the easiest meals you make.

Whip up a double-batch of chili earlier in the week.  Bake your potatoes at your convenience.  Then, just heat it all up when you’re ready for dinner.

Hearty and satisfying, these are a meal in themselves.  But, if you really wanna kick things up a notch, serve them with a little pineapple-jalapeño salsa.

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.  Prick each potato several times with a knife and place in foil lined baking dish.  Cook until fork-tender.  Allow to cool enough to handle, then cut a slit down each potato length-wise and press each end to pop them open.

Ladle a generous portion of chili over each potato and sprinkle lots and lots of cheese!  Return the potatoes to the oven and cook until potatoes are warmed through and the cheese has completely melted, about 25-30 minutes.
