Delicious yam fries that are easy and quick to make and satisfy both a salty and sweet craving.
Ingredients
Directions
- Preheat oven to 400 °F (200 °C).
- Peel yams and cut into large chunky french fry pieces.
- Drizzle with olive oil and spread out onto baking sheet.
- Sprinkle with paprika and salt (or just use seasoning salt).
- Bake for 15 minutes until lightly brown on the bottom. Turn and bake for another 5-10 minutes or until soft in the middle and crisp on the outside.
- Serve in place of regular potato dishes.
- Note: also really good as an appetizer with a yogurt-based dipping sauce!

So so so delicious. My finicky-eating 8-year-old gobbled these up like candy. I didn't tell him that they are healthy, too. :)

I enjoyed these so much I ate all of them instead of half of them. Today I bought smaller yams so I can't eat too many of them.

Great! I've been making the same. Note that these are fine under phase 1 of Fat Smash. I don't think there was a reference to suitability for South Beach.
