Rosemary Sweet Potato Steak Fries
Who here likes fries? I know my family sure does. Sunday is a family day at my parents house. It has been for years. A lot of times, fries are included with dinner. For a long, long time I have avoided eating fries, and it’s kind of a bummer. Okay, it’s a big bummer. So, when I found this recipe in The Biggest Loser: Families Cookbook, I thought I’d give it a try. (Can you tell I love this cookbook A LOT?)
What you’ll need:
- 2 lbs sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into steak fry sized pieces
- 1 1/2 tablespoons freshly minced garlic
- 1 1/2 teaspoons dried rosemary
- 2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1/4 teaspoon salt or to taste
Preparation:
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. In a a large bowl, toss sweet potatoes with garlic, rosemary, olive oil, and salt. Arrange in a single layer, not touching, on a large non-stick baking sheet. Bake for 15 mins. Turn pieces and bake 10 to 15 minutes longer or until tender. Makes 6 servings.

Can I just say how much I love this recipe?! I really do! I didn’t think I’d like it very much because I’m not a huge fan of sweet potatoes, but it’s really excellent!
Now, you have a quick, simple, and healthy way to add fries to your meal! Enjoy!
