Healthy Sweet Potato FRIES!!

Ok. So here's my back story. I've always been a sweet potato lover. It's been my favorite food since... well, since infancy. In fact, I loved sweet potatoes so much (and my mom continued to feed them to me since I loved them so much- thanks, Mom) that I did, in fact, turn orange. True story.

Don't get me wrong, I love a good baked sweet potato. Bake it in the over and throw some cinnamon on that shizz and you've got heaven on a plate. However, nothing... I repeat, NOTHING tastes as good as a delicious french fry. Put the two together? BAM. Instant bliss.

But you know, there's a drawback in all of that fried goodness. It's.. well... FRIED. So let's circumvent that, shall we?

Here's what you'll need:

  • 2 large garnet yams or sweet potatoes, cut into wedges
  • 2 tablespoons coconut oil
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder
  • 1 tablespoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne
Here's what you'll do... so easy it hurts!


1. Preheat oven to 425ºF.
2. Toss cut sweet potatoes in coconut oil and spices. Make sure every wedge is evenly coated.
3. Roast cut-side down for 30 minutes, turning once.

Enjoy!
