- Cut baked sweet potatoes in half and carefully scoop out the center of each half, leaving a about 1/2-inch border of sweet potato left.
- Sprinkle each half with salt and pepper (use about 1/2 teaspoon of each total). Divide spinach, tomato, and feta if using evenly between each sweet potato half.
