[...] if I let him. He went through a beans phase, and now it’s sweet potatoes. I’d prefer to “steam bake” them, but I often don’t remember in time, so I just microwave them for a few minutes after [...]

The crockpot variation sounds like a great idea. From searching online, it looks like 4-5 potatoes need to be cooked on low for 4-6 hours depending on their size.

We love sweet potatoes too and pretty much fix them according to Erin’s recipe, but since there so much nutrition in the skin, we eat the skins too!! (they’re well scrubbed and no babies in the home anymore)

thanks!!

Fell in love with Outback Restaurant’s sweet potatoes which the waitress said they were steamed.

Just add a little water to the bottom of a pan, add a steamer basket and cook your sweet potatoes.

Thanks for the other options.

Thanks for sharing this method. I just put a pan of four sweet potatoes in the oven to cook with my Mexican Manicotti.

We get “The Ultimate Fish Sticks” from Costco – they’re delicious! I wouldn’t eat any other kind of fish stick or feed them to my family until I found these. Crispy panko breading and real Alaskan cod pieces, not minced fish. Try ‘em!

I love SPs! We would make Sheppards Pie and use mashed SPs instead of white potatoes when we were low-carbing it.

Another GREAT way to enjoy them is to get a cookie pan, put some olive oil on the pan, slice the SPs thin like thick chips, bake at 400 or something for like 30 or 40 minutes… eat with ketchup!

I love sweet potato’s and need an easy way to cook them. (usually I just get them out of a can with all that high frutose corn syrup – yuk).

Unrelated question…I need some cheap N easy recipes for sun dried tomatoes. I found a large glass container of them for $8 at Costco. I’ve been chopping them up and adding it to cream cheese for bagels. Also made a sauce out of it for pasta,…but all the other reciepes I find for it online have these terribly expensive ingredients! And the thing is, you can’t use too much of it because it’s fat filled. Yummy!
