Twice Baked Sweet Potatoes

I saw these Twice Baked Sweet Potatoes on Sugar & Spice and realized they were in my fall Food & Family magazine. I thought they would be great paired with Pioneer Woman’s Yogurt Chicken and they were. These potatoes are healthy, and a nice slightly sweet addition to any meal. If you like sweet potatoes you are going to love these!
