Yam Recipes

This is a Nigeraian cuisine

Great for using leftover baked yams

This is a loose version of traditional Jewish kugel, however I changed it to use yams and fresh other vegetables. It is gluten free, too! I served it as a side dish with baked chicken and a green salad.

A makeover of a Spark recipe using canned beans and yams for convenience and smaller, taco sized low carb, whole wheat tortillas for smaller portion sizes. (6 servings)

This is actually a revision of a sweet potato custard recipe that I saw on SP, but this one is sugar free . Moist, creamy and satisfying, this dessert or snack packs a healthy punch of potassium.

A perfect spread if you want something warm on your sandwich, or a dip.

A simple salad that satifies flavour cravings. Easy to make and good hot or cold. It's quite filling, rich in vitamin A, calcium and fibre.

This is a great outdoor bbq dinner

Yams with apples, celery, onions & herbs.

Nigerian Yam pottage with Kale, smoked fish and a little less oil than usual

This is NOT your traditional sweet potato pie. I always wanted to try a purple yam/sweet potato pie since I saw a photo of it. I decided for portion control, I would make the tart size. This is the first time I am making them this way. So here goes!

Homemade; Very flexible; Use what you have on hand. This is only a guide; add herbs according to your likes; The yams may be called orange sweet potatoes in some areas. Salt content can get very high depending on the ingredients you use. The only extra salt in mine is the 1 bouillon cube.

My newest favorite

The greatest soup ever.

I like to serve this with curry mayo.

Salsa adds moisture & zest to yams and the yams add a warm, earthy base.

A little work roasting the yam chunks, but very yummy!

This is our family's favourite way to have tuna
