Course Sides
Servings 12 people

Ingredients
  

  • 2 sweet potatoes large
  • 2 yellow squash small
  • 1 cup greek yogurt plain
  • 1 cup shredded cheese
  • 1/2 onion

Instructions
 

  • Set your sweet potatoes in the oven for about an hour first before you prep the rest of the dish.
  • Start by dicing the onions and sauté on a skillet with a little bit of oil. Use a spiralizer on the squash and then chop up in to pieces. Add to the skillet for a few minutes.
  • Once the sweet potatoes are fully cooked remove from oven and scoop out the puree. Toss the skins. Add the sweet potato to a baking dish with some plain Greek yogurt. Mix in the onions and squash plus some shredded cheese and stir to combine.
  • Bake at 400F for about 20 minutes.
  • In the last 5 minutes or so throw some pecans on top and squish them down in to the mixture. Once done remove from oven and serve while hot!

Notes

I suggest cheddar but different kinds of cheese would work just fine!
You will also need a spiralizer for this recipe.
The majority of the cook time is for the sweet potatoes.
