And I believe I am in Love with the sweet potato. I love them baked whole (no butter needed), I love them mashed, and I especially love them turned into Fries.

And if you add a delicious dipping sauce, you can really rock these. So this is my way of having fries but without all the calories and guilt of deep fried potato fries.
