- 4 small to medium sweet potatoes (1-1/4 pounds total)

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.

in several places, and place them in the oven. Bake until the
potatoes are tender, about 50 minutes.

Slit the tops of the potatoes lengthwise with a knife. Press
the ends to open the slits. Top each potato with 1 teaspoon
margarine. Sprinkle each with lemon juice, zest, salt, and
nutmeg. Serve immediately while hot.
