Cookin Yams?

[tretch187]

Just curious how you guys prepare your Yams/sweet potatoes?

I have never cooked them before and am going to try them. The brown rice is getting old.

Microwave and splenda maybe?

cook with sugar free maple syope in the oven on 400 for 45 min... or micro first to cut down time.. tastes wicked awesome... candy yams.. you think you're cheating!

yup, 'bout 8min in the microwave, some spray butter and pepper...those things are sweet enought for me as-is...when cuttin', my favorite meal of the day...

Wrap the yam in saran wrap that will create a convection if made in the microwave. If I have time I cook several at a time in the oven 350 for an hour or so. Cooked til soft and ooozing sugar juices....It makes the house smell incredible and to me cooked in the oven has a sweeter taste then the micro.

I use splenda on mine. I love sweet foods and that totally satisfies the cravings..I 've tried the sugar free maple sryrup sweetened with Splenda and found it to have a weird after taste.. However, my wife loves it...
