Sweet potato fries are already a healthier choice and baking them makes it even better. If you want to up the flavor, try adding a pinch of cayenne pepper or sugar.
4 sweet potatoes, peeled if desired.
1/4 cup olive oil
salt, to taste
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Grease a baking sheet.
Slice the sweet potatoes into 1/2-inch thick strips and place in a bowl. Drizzle the sweet potatoes with the olive oil, tossing to coat them completely.
Spread the sweet potato fries out onto the prepared baking sheet so the fries are in an even layer. Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes or until the fries are browned on the bottom. Turn the fries over carefully and bake for 15-20 more minutes or until golden brown on all sides.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and sprinkle the fries with salt as desired. You can also add other seasonings. Serve hot.
Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
What's the secret ingredient in these cakes? Pudding mix. It not only adds flavor but it gives the cake a richer, creamier texture. No one will know your secret ingredient!
Keeping a can of frozen orange juice concentrate in the freezer means you can make more than just orange juice. Try it in a variety of orange-flavored recipes.
