It is common for steakhouses in our area to offer baked sweet potatoes as a side, just like a baked potato, only with butter, sugar and cinnamon. This is a fancier version that sound delicious, ie. the sweet potato version of a stuffed potato. I have not tried it, but hope you enjoy! Cook time includes time to initially cook the sweet potatoes. Ingredients:

1/2 cup orange juice |
3 tablespoons butter |

2. Bake sweet potatoes for 1 hour or until tender.
