Sweet Potatoes With Walnut and Hazelnut Stuffing

These stuffed sweet potatoes with spinach and white beans offer a delicious combination of flavors and textures. We start with sweet potatoes baked to perfection. Then, they’re filled with an irresistible mix of sautéed spinach, white beans, chopped sun-dried tomatoes, and a pinch of nutmeg. But the real magic comes from the crunchy nuts! Chopped walnuts and hazelnuts add a delightful crunch and nutritional boost to every bite, providing healthy fats, proteins, and an irresistible flavor. And to top it off, a generous drizzle of tahini sauce with garlic and lemon adds a creamy, tangy touch that complements all the flavors perfectly
