Sweet Potatoes Stuffed Cajun Style
4 sweet potatoes, 1/2 - 3/4 pound each
1/2 cup onions, finely chopped
1 Tablespoon olive oil
1/2 cup celery, deveined and finely chopped
1 large fresh tomato, peeled and finely diced
1/2 cup cooked okra, finely chopped
1 Tablespoon (more if you like) salt-free Cajun spice
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Scrub sweet potatoes, dry, and set on a cookie
sheet. Bake for about an hour. Meanwhile, in a skillet, saute onions in oil.
When soft, add celery, cover, reduce heat, and steam (add a few spoons of hot
water if needed). Add tomatoes, okra, and seasonings. Mix well. When sweet
potatoes are done, remove from oven, slice off a top layer, and remove pulp from
shells. Place pulp in a bowl, blend well with Cajun-style filling and stuff
shells with mixture. Return to oven and heat until warm. Makes 4 servings
