Making oven fries out of sweet potatoes brings out their inherent sweetness.



READER'S COMMENT:
"I'm concerned about the canola oil. From what I've read, coconut oil would be better (yes, it's saturated fat, but its medium-chain triglycerides have a beneficial effect on the body). And for the reader who adds Splenda--!!!! Why don't...
