Loaded Sweet Potatoes with Kimchi and Bacon

Roasted sweet potatoes topped with bacon-enriched kimchi, melted mozzarella and a drizzle of honey for a savory-sweet, five-ingredient meal.

For effort-to-flavor ratio, you can’t really beat a jar of kimchi and a pack of bacon. This five-ingredient dinner is a riot of deliciousness: Sweet potatoes roasted in bacon fat provide a sturdy base for bacon-enriched kimchi and pillowy mozzarella. (You can use low-moisture, pre-shredded mozzarella in a pinch.) The drizzle of honey amplifies all the other ingredients, much like honey on pepperoni pizza does. Any variety of sweet potato will work nicely, but if you have a choice, look for garnet sweet potatoes. They’re a darker orange-red than other varieties and have very sweet, creamy flesh.
