Roast it or bake it, it jumps to 94. Anything with a GI of more than 55 is going to create a spike in blood sugar so keep the GI in mind when you prepare sweet potatoes.
Smart, never knew that0 -
They are great curried!0

Tried mashing them with some onions etc... Don't know if I didn't do it right because it did NOT taste good which was surprising!
From the replies - Does anyone have any good recipes for making them into soup, and putting them in curry?? The curry idea sounds wonderful0 -

Without the pecans, it's very good for you.

I love sweet potatoes!!!! I made some brown sugar-cinnamon butter (with a dash of vanilla extract) just for my sweet potatoes. I'm not as adventurous as y'all. I just like them baked with my special butter.0

however, I'm not very adventurous when it comes to cooking them! I have done 3 things with them:
-Bake, then add baked beans and such
-Make them into chips (only done this once or twice)
-Most commonly, I cube and boil them, then add veggies and bacon and mix it all together in to a potato-stir-fry goodnesssss
