Football season!

Get out those culinary skills, it's game time! Football season playoffs are here
(Anyone have a favorite for the superbowl)? And boy do I love game day food! BUT it came be a real kicker on your waistline! So this weekend try my lowfat sweet potato skins (extra fiber and beta carotene by using sweet potatoes)

Sweet potato Skins

• 7 small SWEET potatoes
• 1 cup fat-free cheddar cheese or 1 cup low-fat cheddar cheese
• 1/2 cup bacon bit
• Pam cooking spray

GARNISH

• green onion
• lettuce, shredded

• salsa
• black olives

   Wash potatoes and wrap them each in foil.
2. 2
   Bake on 425°F for 1-1 1/2-until they feel soft.
3. 3
   Cool a bit so they can be handled and then cut in half long ways.
4. 4
   Scoop out the insides leaving just a bit of potato.
5. 5
   Spray potatoes inside and out with Pam and put back into 425°F oven for 10 minutes or until a little crisp.
