  2. Bake the sweet potatoes for 45–60 minutes until tender to the touch.
  3. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Sauté minced garlic for 1–2 minutes or until fragrant.
  4. Add diced mushrooms and cook for 5-7 minutes until golden brown.
  5. Add fresh spinach to the skillet and sauté for an additional 2–3 minutes until wilted.
  6. Remove from heat and mix the mushrooms, spinach, cream cheese, and half of your shredded cheese. Adjust salt and pepper to taste.
  7. Slice sweet potatoes open lengthwise, scoop out some flesh, and mix it back into the filling.
  8. Stuff the potato skins with the filling and top with the remaining shredded cheese. Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 10–15 minutes.
  9. Serve warm, optionally drizzled with balsamic glaze.
