     Delicious. The combo of rosemary and sweet potatoes is great. I recommend letting the rosemary sit in the oil in the bowl for a few minutes, and then tossing the sweet potatoes in that mixture. This way the rosemary sticks well to the potatoes and the flavor has a chance to bloom in the oil. - 3/15/07

     We tried this last night...it was wonderful. Only change we made was to zap potatoes for 3 min in microwave before putting them in oven...then into oven for 10 minutes. Wonderful ! - 7/22/08

     I've always loved anything 'sweetpotato'...Try parboiling the sweet potatoes for about 10-15 mins., to soften before baking. These taste great with baked cinnamon chicken! - 7/1/09

     This is excellent cooked on the top shelf of the grill while grilling chicken - 7/18/08

     The flavor combination of these ingredients is definitely tastey, however I had trouble getting the potatoes to cook evenly. I think next time I'll cook a short time in a closed baking dish to help them steam cook a bit and then I'll take off lid. - 5/6/08

     This is one of my favorites. You can also use white potatoes but the sweets are the best! Another version is roasting cauliflower, squash or asparagus. - 4/3/10

     I TRIED THE BAKE SWEET POTATOE FRIES LAST MONTH FOR THE FIRST TIME AND I ADDED A PITCH OF CAYENNE PEPPER, GARLIC POWER, SEA SALT AND BLACK PEPPER ALL MIXED TOGETHER AND SHOOK THEM UP IN A BAG LIKE YOU DO CHICKEN THEN PLACE THEM IN THE OVEN UNTIL CRISPY AND BROWN...MAKE YOU WANT TO SMACK YOU MAMA!

     So scrumptious, it's hard to believe how healthy it is! I followed the recommendations of Jepson, SpecialMG, and Pat21239, and they came out perfectly from my trusty toaster oven. - 7/25/09

     One of my all time favorites! I also add coarse ground salt and black pepper before cooking. - 6/24/08

     These were great. I dipped them in some low fat sour cream for only about 20 more calories - 1/16/08

     I'm from the deep South and love my sweets but have always hated the way Yankees kill them with sugars-- this is a good way to do them and this is a good change from roasting whole - 4/3/10

     I tried this recipe last night and it was really tasty. Even the kids enjoyed it!! - 1/15/08
  • MRSHONEYC
     This was REALLY GOOD! I've never been a fan of the candied sweet potatoes and no one had ever made them any differently, so I had no idea of any other way to make these. Not *just* for Thanksgiving! This will be in my repetoire for sure! - 11/22/07
  • MRSMCGARRY
