I believe I can eat healthy and still enjoy cooking and eating great food. I believe I can have my “junk food” and eat it without repercussions.  I believe most recipes can be “tweeked” to make them more nutritious without losing the great flavor we love.   I believe I can still have my favorite dishes with fewer calories  just by changing the manner in which they are prepared.  Yep, I’m a believer.

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.    I believe and I know they are loaded with Vitamin A and are a healthier choice vs regular potatoes.   And I believe when you make these fries, you will NOT feel cheated, in fact I bet you would choose these over regular french 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.
