Microwaved garnet/...I eat sweet potatoes every day! Microwaved garnet/jewel/purple with almond and walnut butter are part of my breakfast every day along with grilled chicken breast and some asparagus. On Saturday after my long run, I indulge by adding coconut manna before I put the nut butters on and also using pecan butter (Fastachi pecan butter is swoon-worthy, love their cashew, pistachio and walnut also!). I used to top with honey but it messed with my blood sugar. A drop or two of maple syrup might work nicely.<br /><br />Not sure what my favorite method of prep is as my everyday is so good. But fries can be great but sometimes don't work, grilling is good and can carmelize but may also leave you with "soup". I've also used cooked sweet potato slices for sandwich "bread" - works especially well with turkey, but you have to make sure the sweet potato still has some solidity to it. I haven't yet tried hash browns with sweet potatoes. I prefer them more on their own than in casseroles.<br /><br />Found you through Endurance Planet - Tawnee's tweet!
