Have you ever tried making sweet potatoes in the microwave? It's super easy and saves time compared to baking them in the oven! First, wash your sweet potato thoroughly under running water to remove any dirt. Pat it dry with a clean towel. Next, use a fork to poke several holes all over the sweet potato. This helps steam escape during cooking, preventing it from exploding in the microwave!

Now, place the sweet potato on a microwave-safe plate and cook on high for about 5 minutes. Depending on the size of your sweet potato, you might need to flip it halfway through and continue microwaving for another 2-3 minutes. Once done, let it sit for a minute or two before handling—it'll be piping hot!

Cut open your perfectly cooked sweet potato and enjoy its natural sweetness. You can top it with butter, brown sugar, or even a dollop of Greek yogurt for extra flavor. 🥄💕 This quick snack is not only delicious but also nutritious—perfect for busy days! 🌟
