  • 2 large sweet potatoes
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon grated orange peel
  • 2 tablespoon sugar-free maple syrup

What to Do

  1. Scrub sweet potatoes and prick skins. Cover and cook in microwave on HIGH 6 minutes on each side, or until potatoes are soft. Let stand 1 to 2 minutes.

Notes

  • We like to serve these in hollowed orange halves to make them company-fancy.

  • If you have the option, choose sweet potatoes over white potatoes because they have a lower glycemic index.
