I enjoyed these "fries" however the rest of the family just thought they were okay. I'll make them again because sweet potatoes are so good for you. Thanks for posting.

I love love love these, I tried the frozen ones and they do not even come close to this, I also added in lots of cayenne pepper and I used seasoned salt and garlic powder, the flavor was so good, thank you for sharing Lori, I will make again soon!

Very tasty. They weren't crispy but, then again, I didn't expect them to be. I'm only giving it 4 stars because of the skin. I will definitely make this recipe again but with one change......I will peel the skin next time.We found it to be 'chewy'.....for lack of a better word. Thanks for sharing.

These had a very nice taste, but the texture was much more like potato wedges, than fries. I will probably make them again - knowing that they don't pack a fry-like crunch.
