Anyone have a way to jazz up sweet potatoes, in a gluten free & dairy free way?? *food allergies*

Bake 'em and puree with some veggie or chicken broth for a soup. Add cumin, ginger, curry or whatever herbs and spices you like. Or cube it and add to a black bean chili. Or mash a baked tater and mix it with black beans and salsa, then wrap it in a GF tortilla.3

Am currently making sweet potato slices with smoked paprika1

Fry them up with some coconut oil, onions (I love red ones), whatever other veggies and herbs and spices you like (J love me some garlic, ginger, Turmeric,...)1

(I do this for normal potatoes too). I slice them up into circle shapes, pour 2 table spoons of oil over them, add a dash of salt, thyme and a sprinkle of chilli powder (mix) place them on the grill and let them cook for 50 mins at a medium - high temp. Throw in some steak or chicken and you're good.1

Roasted at 450° in the oven (I use a french fry cutter or wedges)....mmm so good. About 25 minutes.0 -
Slice it thin, 1/8", fry crisp in coconut oil, to make "chips". Make a remoulade of 1/4 cup mayo, tsp mustard, 1/2 tsp smoked paprika, 1/2 tsp cinnamon, 1/4 tsp tumeric, S&P to taste.
Dip. Eat. Yum!2 -
I use canned yams, not sure how this would work with fresh, but it should.
Ingredients
1 can yams
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 c melted butter
1 c miniature marshmallows
Put yams into bowl, mash thoroughly (I've used wooden spoons or electronic mixing spoon) with juice from the can, vanilla and cinnamon. In a medium skillet over low heat melt butter. Add yam mixture, mix thoroughly. Top with marshmallows, allow to warm for 5 minutes, stir marshmallows into yams, heat 5 more minutes until marshmallows melted. Serve warm or cold.1 -
Sliced and baked with either cinnamon, stevia, and salt. Or with paprika, pepper, salt, garlic, chili lime...etc
Or
Baked or microwaved and filled with almond butter, cinnamon, a little SF maple syrup, and salt(:1 -
Add your favorite nut butter + cinnamon.3

Cut into strips and deep fried1

I like to peel them, chop into bite sized pieces, toss in homemade balsamic vinaigrette, and roast for thirty to fourty minutes.
Also, chopped and boiled with rutabaga and carrots, then mashed.2 -
Scrub, dice with skin on, saute in a small amount of
butter, coconut oil, or olive oil with sea salt.1 -
baked or microwaved until soft, then eaten with sugar-free maple syrup and grilled chicken (yes, chicken with the syrup!) So delicious.2

yum yum yum everyone- thanks for the ideas! I like mine oven roasted in olive oil with dried cranberries and chopped red onion.0

Poke holes in them and bake them in the crock pot on low for 6-7 hrs. They're so creamy! I've been eating sea salt and caramel on mine. I'm trying date syrup soon.

My favorite way is pretty high calorie, but I only eat them this way on holidays. That is as a casserole with lots of butter and brown sugar and marshmallows. For a lower cal way I like to bake the potato and add a little butter and a little brown sugar. I also like them fried and dipped in barbeque sauce. I'm going to have to try some of the suggestions in this post.0
