Roasted Sweet Potatoes and Noodles in Brown Sage Butter

Wed, 29 Apr 2009 17:00:41 -0400

I came up with this recipe after having a similar dish in a local restaurant. The flavors are not big and robust, but rather are subtle and very comforting. My meat & potatoes husband likes this as a side dish but would not consider it a main dish. However, my son and I eat it as a vegetarian main dish and both crave it when we go too long without it! Cooking time is start-to-finish and includes roasting the sweet potatoes about 40 minutes. -- posted by Park Rangerette

He says "If there is meat around, why waste the time on side dishes?" He ate two HUGE servings of this......it is THAT good! If you cannot find candied jalapenos, just use one small fresh jalapeno (seeded and minced) and a tablespoon of sugar....it is just as good. We love curry, so we add more curry powder. Taste it and customize it to your taste! The long prep time is the passive time needed to chill the potatoes. -- posted by LizP

Whipped Sweet Potatoes and Bananas With Honey

Sat, 21 Nov 2009 20:00:10 -0500

From Tyler Florence, Ultimate Thanksgiving. I like the idea of using banana and honey instead of sugar for the sweetness. I can't stand those yucky, overly sweet sweet potatoes that we here in the south usually serve. This is a better option for those of us who enjoy sweet potatoes without all the sugar. I did retain the pecan topping but you can probably cut it back to 1/2 cup of brown sugar. Enjoy! -- posted by ThreeGoodCooks
