Using up Sweet Potatoes

These sweet potato fries look divine. I have had regular unflavored ones and thought they where good. These sound even better. Don't like rosemary. Leave that out. Think I will give 'em a try.

I've done a baked dish lately with cubed sweet potatoes, diced up cooked bacon, and feta stirred together. Just dump it in a casserole and bake for a good hour on 375* or so. Its delicious and easy!

Those all sound good! I love feta. So easy I'll definitely have to try it.

I've made the sweet potato fries a couple of ways. It is hard to get them crisp in the oven, but they still taste good. They turn out a little better deep fried.

Oops, sorry I forgot to link it. http://www.epicurious.com/recipes/food/views/sweet-potato-latkes-105919

They were really good reheated in the microwave too. We served ours with sour cream on the side. This is one of those recipes that I will find myself craving all the time. I don't think my DH would complain if I made them again for dinner tonight...ha.

I am so wanting to get started with that, fermenting carrots and whatever else I can get my hands on. I will have to try it with sweet potatoes. I already make ACV and kombucha. Tried kraut once and tossed it out because I think I ruined it. I need to read up on it.


We had the sweet potato latkes for dinner again tonight. We are so addicted to them! I've made them 4 times since I started this thread. And sweet potato tater tots are great too, baked and a lot healthier, but still good!

I'm going to have to grow a longer row of sweet potatoes next year. They're so versatile and yummy. Mine are still good in storage at the moment too.

Sweet potatoes are much more healthier than regular potatoes. I hardly ever buy regular potatoes. But I do buy sweet potatoes a lot.

They sell white sweet potatoes starts which I have never eaten. I am told they taste like white but are healthier like sweets.
