Healthy Grilled Sweet Potato Steak Fries

"Make sure you keep the skins on so the potatoes stay intact on the grill. Can be prepared in advance (step 1-2) and kept at room temperature for 4 hours or refrigerate for up to 8 hours. Serve with a quick mix of sour cream (I use fat-free), chives, and bacon bits (try turkey bacon!) If you're not on low-carb...add some brown sugar!"

  1. I boiled the sweet potatoes, in their skin, for 10 minutes. Then I let them cool and sliced them into thick wedges. After seasoning them with olive oil and za’atar they got grilled for approx. 20 min. Delish!!!
     
  2. These were great. I didn't add any sugar (especially not sugar sub- ick, poison) but otherwise followed directions. Simple way to keep the oven off in the summer.

<p>I am university student and quasi-housewife to my workaholic significant other, who is a phenomenal cook and serious foodie as well.&nbsp; We enjoy undertaking complicated cooking projects to help wind down after a long day...most days we don't get to eat until close to midnight, thanks to his work schedule, our gym time, and our cooking projects.&nbsp;</p> <p>Our current food interests have been on curries, steak, shellfish, and healthy desserts.&nbsp; The ethnic theme has mostly been Indian and Creole. We like incorporating a lot of spice and experimenting with rare or exotic ingredients.</p> <p>But we enjoy our wine (we keep a journal) and time together as we cook.&nbsp; When time allows, we will enjoy a nice after-dinner drink (tailored to our dessert choice of course), usually a spicy sipping rum like Zaya or Zacapa or a glass of cognac or tawny port.&nbsp; So we enjoy experimenting with desserts to suit or incorporate various spirits or dessert wines.&nbsp; And trying to find some healthy options so we can enjoy our wine or *****tail with a little less guilt!&nbsp;</p> <p>But we do love to indulge!&nbsp; And love entertaining family and friends to sample new creations or enjoy some our famous concontions.&nbsp;</p> <p>Currently, I am experimenting with creating a recipe list that incorporates the philosophy of the best facets of different diet plans while maximizing the benefits of combining the nutritional content of the foods with the health benefits of various spices in order to create nutritionally balanced meals.&nbsp; Just for fun and some interested friends.&nbsp; I'll create a recipe list when I have made more progress.</p>
