Ingredients

  1. Whole sweet potatoes
  2. Prepared wild rice (about 1/4-1/2 cup per sweet potato)

Directions

  1. Scrub sweet potatoes, pierce in two places with a fork, place on a foil-lined baking sheet, and bake for 1 hour at 425 degrees, or until soft.
  2. Prepare wild rice to your liking, or use fully-cooked Canoe Wild Rice, and heat just before serving.
  3. Let baked sweet potatoes cool slightly before slicing open part-way lengthwise.
  4. Top sweet potatoes with heated wild rice, other toppings, and salt/pepper/seasoning to taste.

Enjoy!
