Meatless Monday: Home made Sweet Potato Fries

Sweet potato fries are one of my all time favourites, and whenever I go to the states I can't get enough. I don't know why the Sweet Potato isn't something we use much in the UK when it is so tasty and better for you than a regular potato.

1 baked sweet potato has your daily intake of vitamin A... so remember that next time you are out shopping.

Ingredients:

* Sweet Potato (at least one per person)

* Olive Oil

* Salt (optional)

Method:

* Peel the potato and slice into slices/chunks.

* Line a baking sheet with foil and lay out your slices of sweet potato

* Drizzle in olive oil and place in a pre-heated oven (200 Degrees)

* Bake for 10-15 minutes on each side. Leave for a further 10-15 minutes or until golden. 

* Serve on a place and add salt if needed.

I love this as a snack, and due to their great vitamin A content, and that they are a complex carbohydrate, means you can pretty much eat these guilt free (although the salt is going to make them slightly less ok, so hold back on the salt if possible).

Enjoy!
