    Then I like them baked with a little salt, maple syrup and cinnamon. If I have the calories butter too :smile:

    Baked in a slow oven 2 or more hours until they caramelize, then add a pat of butter & a sprinkle of salt - YUM!

    Mashed with salt, pepper, and butter. The simpler the better for me.

    I like to keep them sweet, not savory.
    I often have them plain, baked, on their own. Otherwise I mash them with a little bit of brown sugar. Then of course there's my sweet potato casserole for thanksgiving!

    Baked then loaded with real butter, sugar and cinnamon for eating with steak or baked and cubed with corn syrup and cinnamon for eating at any holiday. This is in my bucket list for after my cut cycle is over!

    Yes, I am bad :/

    Poke with fork, wrap in wet paper towel, and microwave for 6-8 mins. Add little butter :).

    baked, mashed, roasted, fries. I like to cut them up and put them into soups or stir fry as well.

    Sliced into discs, brushed with olive oil, sprinkled with some garlic powder and rosemary, bake 400F.
    They are like crack to me. :)

    Yes, pretty much this, although I most often use 5 spice powder. Delicious.

    I really don't understand all the suggestions to add honey/maple syrup/brown sugar... they are already super sweet, that sound like it would be way over the top.

    Cut raw potato into french fry shaped strips (chip shaped strips for our UK friends!); Toss in olive oil (about 1 tablespoon per large potato); spread in single layer on baking sheet; sprinkle with favorite seasoning (I like salt, garlic powder and cayenne pepper -OR- salt and sweet curry powder); bake at 425F until done. Enjoy!!
