Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 medium sweet potatoes (8 to 10 ounces each), pricked all over with a fork
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 garlic cloves, thinly sliced crosswise
1 bunch kale (about 1 1/4 pounds), thick stems removed, leaves torn into large pieces and washed with water left clinging
Coarse salt and ground pepper
1 to 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1/2 teaspoon red-pepper flakes
1 cup part-skim ricotta cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Place potatoes on a rimmed baking sheet and rub with 1 tablespoon oil. Bake until easily pierced with the tip of a paring knife, 45 minutes to 1 hour.
  • Meanwhile, in a large skillet, heat remaining oil over medium-high. Add garlic; cook until golden, 1 to 2 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer garlic to a paper towel to drain.
  • Add as much kale as will fit in the skillet; season with salt and pepper. Continue to add kale as the leaves cook down. Cook, tossing frequently until tender, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in vinegar and red-pepper flakes.
  • Open each potato; add salt and pepper. Top with ricotta, kale, and garlic.

This recipe is a great starting point, but I think it could be improved with a few tweaks. I would add some more spices to the sweet potatoes and I would also use a different type of cheese, maybe a sharp cheddar.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my dish turned out really bland. I think I might have used too much kale.

I added some crumbled bacon to this dish and it was amazing! The bacon added a smoky flavor that really took the dish to the next level.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover sweet potatoes. I had some roasted sweet potatoes in the fridge and this dish was a great way to use them up.

I'm not a big fan of kale, but I really enjoyed this dish. The sweet potatoes and ricotta helped to balance out the bitterness of the kale.

I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out perfectly. The sweet potatoes were tender and flavorful, the kale was wilted and tender, and the ricotta was creamy and tangy.
