Sweet Potatoes

I have never been a fan of sweet potatoes.  So, when Bountiful Baskets had 2 weeks with sweet potatoes in them I had to figure out the way to prepare them so I would enjoy eating them.  The first week I made sweet potato mashed potatoes for Shepard's Pie.  It was really good.  This last week I was at a restaurant and on the menu it had sweet potato fries.  So, I went home today and for dinner I made a couple of my sweet potatoes into fries.  They were really good!!  I am starting to be a fan of sweet potatoes.  It is good to have things thrust onto you so that you can learn to like what you receive.  At least I am willing.

I'm not a sweet potato fan either, but I do love sweet potato fries!

I didn't think I was a fan until I made some for Ellie because they have more nutrition in them. They were much better than I thought. I have a website I love for new recipes that's never disappointed me.
