Instructions: Heres a simple, yet delicious way, to prepare sweet potatoes.

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Score the surface of the sweet potatoes with a fork several times, and bake until tender, about 35 to 40 minutes.

Slit each one down the middle and remove a couple of tablespoons of flesh to make room for the filling. Wrap the potatoes in foil and set aside.

In a separate bowl, combine the yogurt, rice, salt and pepper. Place the potatoes on a serving dish. Fold back foil to make a "boat" and spoon in the filling.

Makes 6 servings.

Variation: Replace some of the rice with wild rice, add chopped herbs and dried apricots and garnish with toasted pecans.
