This is usually how I eat em' POPS. You can also mash em' up and have a form of mashed sweet potato. Use some FF butter spray and use lots of cinnamon. Not bad!

This sounds good too, possibly minus the onions for me!

I just load them up with I can't believe it's not butter.

Boil and mash them with a little salt add tuna mayo with yellow peppers sweetcorn and red onions

what, do we have a room full of chefs here, lol!

Before I would just buy them from Jewel already in plastic so all I had to do is throw them in the microwave for 5 min. Too boring.

Anyways, thanks all for the tips!!

cant remember why wrapping in plastic is necessary...i know i dont do this with regular potatoes

I eat em plain usually. Love the taste of em.

Sometimes as a somewhat healthy cheat I'll slice them into 1/8" thick slices and fry them in some butter. They are amazing.

Cut horizontally and thin like Potato Chips. Place on Oven Sheet layed out flat and drizzle olive oil on them evenly. Sprinkle with Pepper and Rosemary. Oven at 450 for 20 minutes. They will be soft in the middle when they are ready.

I like mine with the sides a little burnt. Taste Awesome and a short cooking time.

suprises me that if u cut them as thin as chips that it would take 20min to cook @ that temp...unless u like em burnt all over

Sweet potato and yams to me are already way too sweet to the point where I kind of feel sick. I like to contrast the really sweet taste with HOT SAUCE! Call me crazy but dash a little tapatio on them babies and its a little slice of heaven to me. Sorry if that is no help, but try it you may like it. Thats about as far as I go with sweet potatoes

**BIG_GUNS_21** · 12-11-2010, 12:22 AM

Have a variety of Mrs Dash on hand and some olive oil mash them up and season the way I feel at the time, sometimes a LITTLE hot sauce and GTG

Tupperware container+8 minutes on high+ I can't believe it's not butter+ sweet and low brown sugar= Happy Ajaxx
