Instructions: Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Wash the sweet potato, pat dry and pierce in several places with a fork. Bake 45 to 50 minutes or cook in a microwave oven on high (100 percent power) 5 minutes to 7 minutes, or until tender when pricked with a fork. Let cool slightly.

Combine the remaining ingredients in a bowl; blend well. Working lengthwise, slice sweet potato in half. Use a spoon to scoop out the flesh leaving a 1/4 inch shell of the flesh in each half.

Place the scooped-out potato in a bowl, mash lightly with a fork; add about half the pineapple mixture; blend well. Spoon this mixture back into the potato halves and top each with the remaining pineapple mixture.

Makes 2 servings.
