What is your favorite way to eat sweet potatoes?

I've just recently started eating them, and I wasn't crazy about them at first, but they are growing on me!

    sweet potato fries
  • Baked in their skin. 425 for at least an hour, until they are super soft. They need nothing else.

    Either mashed up with a bit of milk and butter, or as a jacket potato.

    Soup! Dice equal quantities of sweet potato and red bell pepper. Put in a pan with some vegetable stock and a couple of cloves of gralic, cook until soft and then blitz in the blender. Yummy goodness!

    I also love them baked like a normal potato.

    just finished one; baked with "spray" butter. yum.

    They are so easy to bake; just stab them a few times with a fork, stick them on a cookie sheet and bake about an hour at 450.

    If you have a delay setting on your oven, program it to be done when you're home from work. Literally <1 minute prep. (don't forget add an extra 15 minutes for the delay start to include pre-heat time).

    Definitely baked in skins in the oven or on the grill for an hour until they are really soft and super sweet. Then I add a little smart balance and cinnamon. Yum! Sometimes I dice, toss with olive oil and roast in a 425 degree oven. I love them mashed too. I add orange juice and a little maple syrup to it. This is not an everyday way to make it though because of the added sugars, so I make it for special occasions.

    I make a stew with them. I dice them, add onions, chick peas, some green veggies and some veg stock, lots of garlic, onions, cumin and tomato paste and have it in a bowl. :)
