    You can slice them, coat them in a tiny bit of olive oil and seasoning salt and place them on a baking sheet at about 350 for about 30 min. or so, turning them about half way through. We have fried them before as well and they don't hold the grease like regular potatoes do.

    My family is from the south and they put butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, pecans and/or marshmallows on the sweet potatoes and we eat it with ham. That's the only way I can think to eat it, so reading the comments was interesting.

    I like to eat my sweet potatoes with laughing cow cheese (good sub for butter). There's only like 35 cals per serving. I like the onion flavor the best.

    I agree with making fries...they are good. I usually bake tilapia with fish fri seasoning...gives it the texture of fried fish but it's baked! I haven't tried that since joining MFP so can't attest to whether it's lo-cal but it is good.

    Oh my gosh...Im not up to potatoes yet but try going to Publix or deli or make a fresh salsa and put 2 tbsp on it...its like 70 cals...make it a bit spicey and add a smidge of cinnamon...its deeeelish with the sweet potato, or salad, or over a veggie burger!

    Sweet & Spicy Potato Rounds

    2 sweet potatoes
    Creole seasoning (or Old Bay)
    PAM spray

    Pre-heat oven to 400 degree
    Cut sweet potatoes into 1/4-1/2" thick rounds
    Place on PAM-covered cookie sheet
    Spray sweet potatoes with PAM
    Sprinkle creole seasoning all over them
    Put in oven for 20 minutes, flipping half-way thru

    Just add "sweet potato" in the MFP food database. These get rave reviews every time I make them!
