  The recipe is actually good but I eliminated the splenda and the cinnamon. Sweet potatoes are naturally sweet and that's enough for me - 7/25/09

  I have been making baked sweet potato fries for years, but I add crushed fresh garlic and/or garlic salt, chili powder, cumin, pepper in a ziploc bag with the olive oil, shake up to thoroughly coat the pieces, and then bake. I also have used "Caribbean Jerk" seasoning instead of the other spices. - 6/16/08

  When I put this in the recipe calculator, I got fewer calories (about 94) and less sodium (about 2000) - not sure why. That's still a lot of sodium I can't have, so I'm going to try it with little or no salt. - 6/19/08

  I make my sweet potato fries by just spraying them with EVoo spray and sprinkling them with garlic powder and whatever spices and/or hebs I'm in the mood for that day. I'd never add so much salt tho - wouldn't be good for my husband especially and any of us in general. - 6/13/08

  I love doing sweet potatoes this way but slicing the sweet potato and tossing with a little olive oil only. Works well with a regular potato too for oven french fries. - 7/25/09

  My way of making Sweet Potatoe 'Fries" is to do more of a 'home-fries'cut (chunky). Then tos with 1/4c EVOO and 1/8c/ Light Soy or Teriyaki and 1/8 t. Cayene; Bake at 425 for 20 -30 mins. I've also made these then cooled them and tossed with 1/4c. Balsamic vinegar for a salad in the summer!! - 6/15/08

Did NOT use salt, sugar, cinnamon, so thought sweet potatoes would taste ick, but YUM-YUM!! - 7/25/09

  Very good. I usually make mine with the salt and chili pepper and duh, didn't think of cinnamon. I left out the salt and splenda by accident - so caught up in thinking "why didn't I think of cinnamon" and they were still really good. May try it next time with splenda but didn't miss it this time . - 6/18/08

  I've heard these called Sweet Potato Dollars and make them a lot. I don't ever use Splenda (Stevia is better for you) but agee that the sweet potatoes are sweet enough and I use Herbamare for seasoning for everything. I'll try the cinnamon! - 6/18/08

  I love sweet potatoes I omit the splenda--they are already sweet enough. Splenda is nasty stuff we don't need to put that chemical in our bodies!! If you think splenda is "just another sweetener" think again and do some research on it. I guarantee you won't be buying it any more!!!!! - 6/16/08

  I don't use artificial sweeteners or any other man-made ingredients. Use a real sweetener (brown sugar, honey, maple syrup, stevia, etc) instead or nothing since sweet potatoes are...sweet! We need to respect our bodies and and keep most of the food we consume as "close to the farm" as possible. - 7/25/09
