Thank you for 6,000 reports! These stick-shaped sweet potatoes are easy to eat, even for kids. They are sweet and salty with a touch of sugar, and perfect for lunch boxes! The origin of this recipe: I wanted to use sweet potatoes as a lunch box side dish, so I cut them into a size that fits easily into a lunch box and sautéed them in butter.
