Sweet potatoes are one of those veggies that I didn&#8217;t touch as a child.&nbsp; I wouldn&#8217;t even eat them in casserole form topped with marshmallow, syrup &amp; nuts.&nbsp; Nope.&nbsp; I was only interested in your &#8220;normal&#8221; mashed potatoes as a child.&nbsp; I didn&#8217;t even really try, or remember trying, sweet potatoes until just a few years back.&nbsp; Now, I eat them several times a week.&nbsp; My new favorite way is to eat them in <strong>steak fry<\/strong> form.&nbsp; I used to make them in rounds, more like thicker chips, as you can see <a href=\"http:\/\/glutenfreeislife.wordpress.com\/2008\/10\/03\/a-nutrition-victory\/\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>.&nbsp; Friday night, I tried the new, better way and love them!!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.glutenfreeislife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/08\/0022.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"border-bottom:0;border-left:0;border-top:0;border-right:0;\" border=\"0\" alt=\"002\" src=\"http:\/\/www.glutenfreeislife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/08\/002_thumb2.jpg\" width=\"476\" height=\"345\"><\/a> <\/p>\n<p>These are so easy to make, it isn&#8217;t even funny.&nbsp; I sliced a single sweet potato into steak fry shapes first.&nbsp; Then, I sprayed with Pam and seasoned to my liking (I just used sea salt, pepper &amp; cinnamon).&nbsp; I tossed into the oven at about 375 &#8211; 400 and let them go.&nbsp; I checked on them every 10 minutes or so and flipped about half way through and then towards the end again to brown up on all sides.&nbsp; They ROCKED!!&nbsp; <\/p>\n<p>I served them along side of an open-faced fried egg sandwich.&nbsp; I toasted 2 slices of <a href=\"http:\/\/glutenfreeislife.wordpress.com\/2009\/04\/26\/product-review-kinnikinnick-many-wonder-multi-grain-rice-bread\/\" target=\"_blank\">Kinnikinnick&#8217;s Many Wonder Multi-Grain Bread<\/a>&nbsp; and then topped with fresh baby spinach, fried eggs and fresh chopped basil.&nbsp; So good and went perfectly with the sweet potato steak fries!!&nbsp; <\/p>\n<p>If you like sweet potatoes, give these fries a try!&nbsp;
