Sweet Potatoes Home Fries – 3 WW Pts

My mother in law gave me a recipe a while ago for sweet potato fries. We like those, but this recipe is SO much better! I was a little worried about the combination of oregano and sweet potatoes, but it’s so good. We eat these at least once a week.

One tip that I read somewhere is to microwave the potato for a minute or so (be sure to poke some holes). Nuking the sweet potato makes it easier to cut.

Sweet Potato Home Fries (by ME!) – 3 WW Pts – 2 servings
1 large sweet potato – cubed
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper
2 tsp Oregano
2 tsp olive oil

Heat oven to 375. Mix all ingredients in a bowl and stir until potato cubes are well coated.

Pour into glass or metal pan – make sure you have a single layer of potato cubes. Bake 30-45 minutes (depending on the size of the potato) until crispy.

Looks like a perfect salmon recipe! I still haven’t been to Penzey’s, but will make it there one of these weekends!

So how powerful was the cilantro flavor? I’m not a big fan of cilantro, but Steph is. I might try to make this if it isn’t to powerfully flavored with cilantro.

I don’t know if we can be friends Scott. Cilantro is awesome. Honestly, it was more garlicy than cilantro flavored, but I’ve heard that people who don’t like cilantro really can’t stand it and I love it, so I don’t know if that’s a fair assessment… I say give it a shot. If you don’t like the pesto, eat yours without it.
