Sweet Potatoes In Orange Shells
- 3 large oranges (to be juiced)
- 4 medium sweet potatoes (about 1-1/2 pounds)
- 2 teaspoons vegan margarine
- 3/4 cup fresh orange juice (from oranges above)
- 2 tablespoons cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon powdered ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
- 1/4 teaspoon fresh orange zest
- Cut oranges in half and juice them. You should measure 3/4 cup orange juice. If you don't have enough, supplement with packaged orange juice.
- Scoop out orange halves and save the shells. Set aside.
- Wash sweet potatoes and prick in several spots. Place potatoes on a paper towel and microwave on HIGH for 12-15 minutes or until very soft.
- Peel potatoes (be careful!). Scoop potato pulp into a large bowl.
- Mash with margarine, orange juice, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, and zest. Mash and mix until smooth.
- Set orange shells into a casserole or microwaveable serving platter with high sides (to hold the oranges upright). Fill shells with potato mixture.
- Microwave on HIGH for 5 minutes or until warm.
