Sweet Potatoes Recipes

 

Availability: Possibly available in the fall, November-December.

Storage tips: Store at room temperature.  

How to eat: Basic cooking of sweet potatoes includes boiling them whole and then scooping out the flesh when tender.  You can also prick the skin with a fork and then roast whole at 400 until tender.  

Add greens to this to make it pretty!  Baby kale or spinach works nicely, if desired!
