Hi all, I was introduced to this app by my sister almost a week ago and I LOVE IT!
I have begun a love affair with sweet potatoes; I don't know how I've gotten to the age of 37 and never so much as sniffed one of these gorgeous things.

Sounds FIT ha ha0 -

They are a staple in my diet. Brown rice, no so much!2
-
My wife and I cut one in half for dinner sometimes and you guessed it....it has half the calories. That leaves room for the butter!2
-
I dice mine and toss with evoo, s&p, and some cinnamon. Roast until tender. Amazing!1
-
This might sound odd, but ever since I was kid I have enjoyed them raw. Just peel them and cut them up. They're crunchy.1
-
Dice them, dice some apples, a drained can of black beans, some bacon. In a skillet with some olive oil....
Thank me later.4 -

My fav is similar -- baked, with cinnamon, ground chipotle, and a little fat of some kind (butter, Melt coconut oil-based spread, or olive oil). If I were pan-roasting, I think I'd try a squirt of lime juice with those spices.
