  • 1 sweet potato medium
  • 1 tbs olive oil

  • 40 g fetta
  • 1 tsp pine nuts
  • 1 tbs hummus

Method

  • Step 1
    To cook the sweet potato, pierce it with a fork all over and place in the microwave on a piece of paper towel. Cook for 3 minutes per side or until the sweet potato is tender when pierced with a fork. Set aside and let it cool for a few minutes.
  • Step 2
    Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a frypan over medium heat. Add the mushrooms and cook for a few minutes until the mushrooms soften. Add garlic and ginger and stir through well. Cook for a further minute. Then add the corn, and spinach and cook, stirring, until the spinach is wilted for about 1 minute. Add in the rice and cook for a further minute until the rice is warmed through.
  • Step 3
    Once the sweet potato has cooled down, cut in half and scoop out the flesh and place it into a bowl. Add the cooked mushroom and spinach mixture, hummus and season with salt and pepper.
  • Step 4
    Place the sweet potato skins onto a serving plate and fill with the mix then crumble over the feta and nuts, serve immediately.
