The ingredients for this sweet potato dish are in the title! The hardest part of this recipe is peeling and cutting the potatoes.
This recipe is really too simple to be out here, but I found myself wanting to recommend it as a side to some of my other dishes.
Black-eyed peas, okra corn bread, and beet, cabbage and kraut salad!
Orange, maple sweet potatoes
This is a very simple recipe and needs to be included for the technique. These are bakes in a covered pan with orange juice, so they are steamed and roasted at the same time. They are cut like french fries so they are easy to eat.

Notes
This is a Snap Pea Sheep recipe.
Variations you might try is to change up the cooking liquid. Try pineapple juice instead of Orange.
Use lime juice and sprinkle on some chili powder and cumin to make a savory dish.
Watch the time. I cook these in a convection oven> they might be ready in 30 minutes because of the cuts.  |
