We went to Sebring yesterday to run errands and we stopped at a little roadside produce market. That is one thing I absolutely love about Florida. Fresh on demand. He had the prettiest little sweet potatoes, straight out of the ground. Today, I roasted chicken and baked the sweet potatoes. This is almost nothing but heavenly and there’s never leftovers.

Steps

1 hour

1

Preheat oven to 350. Do yourself a favor and line your baking sheet with parchment paper or foil. You can thank me later. Bake pricked potatoes for about an hour or until soft and the sugar is bubbling.
2

Allow the potatoes to cool enough to handle but leave the oven on. Peel the skins off the potatoes and add to an oven proof dish. Mash with a fork then add the butter pieces around the dish. Sprinkle the brown sugar and salt over the top and slide the dish into the oven until the butter and sugar melts. About 10 minutes or so. Remove from oven and stir.

I'm an army brat with a Cajun mother and an Irish dad. I'm married to the love of my life, David, and we have 2 daughters and 2 grandchildren. I've been a barber for 40 years. Im an old fashioned, old school cook and my recipes are basic. I change them up all the time.Since finding out I’m diabetic I’ve had to rearrange old habits. Any recipe I have can be made the old fashioned way OR replaced with lower carb options. Just ask and I’ll tell you what has worked for me.I’m the self proclaimed queen of the leftover. I have issues with leftovers looking back at me with the same sappy look they had the day before. Can’t do it. My super power is turning what I find in my fridge into something I want to eat. I work so much better under pressure. I live for shortcuts and not having to run to the grocery every day. Work with what you have. Adapt and overcome. Also, the less dishes, bowls, and pots I hafta use, the better. Hope some of these recipes work out for ya!
