This dish was a little too spicy for my taste. I would recommend using less chili powder next time. Other than that, it was a delicious and healthy recipe.

This recipe was a great way to use up some leftover sweet potatoes. I also added some leftover roasted chicken to the dish and it was delicious. I will definitely be making this again.

I followed the recipe exactly and the dish turned out great. The only thing I would change is the baking time. I think it could have been baked for a few minutes less. The sweet potatoes were a little overcooked.

This dish was a little bland for my taste. I added some extra spices and herbs to give it more flavor. I also think it would be better with a different type of cheese. I used cheddar cheese, but I think a feta or Parmesan cheese would be better.
