Twice-Baked Sweet Goodness!

Two of these could about make a full meal by themselves, and one makes for a very good side. These Twice-Baked Jalapeño Sweet Potatoes are loaded with flavor and healthy goodness. And don’t worry – the spiciness is not overwhelming and easily adjustable.

I have read plenty about how good sweet potatoes are for you: good fiber and complex carbs, much lower glycemic index than “regular” potatoes, antioxidants, Vitamin A, etc. And I have come to love their flavor, though I must admit that I was a bit slow to warm up to them as a kid. Part of the problem is, I think, that there just aren’t enough good and creative recipes out there for sweet potatoes or at least not enough well-known ones. Well, you’ll want to save this one.

Are you looking for a new recipe to boost up your dinner routine? If you need a fairly simple side dish and don’t care for the usual deep-fried options, consider making a batch of these Oven-Baked Sweet Potato Fries. They are a fair bit lighter than your usual French fries and can be made in well under an hour.

Though I have eaten plenty of “regular” French fries in my time, I always thought that sweet potato fries had a richer flavor, and despite having a rather Southern character, they go well with main dishes from a wide variety of culinary backgrounds. The carbs in them are also considered to be healthier, and by baking them instead of frying them, you can minimize the “bad” fats as well, without compromising the richness of flavor.
