RECIPE: SAVY'S CARIBBEAN SWEET POTATOES

This recipe was created last week by my husband when I was having a huge craving for "chips". They are incredibly easy to make and the flavor is DELICIOUS! In addition, sweet potatoes are complex carbohydrates that are high in manganese, which helps maintain blood sugar at a good level and stabilizes the appetite for hours. They have twice the fiber of any potato, posses vitamin B6 which helps heart health, is rich in beta carotene, a powerful antioxidant that protects the cells of your skin internally from sun damage and helps maintain the eye health. They are also rich in vitamin E and C, antioxidant vitamins essential to prevent disease and promote longevity.

Yum yum yum....!

Ingredients (Serves 2)

- 2 Sweet Potatoes (the bigger the better)

- 1 tsp Coconut oil

- 1 tbsp Almond flour

- 1 tbsp Unsweetened shredded coconut 

- Salt to taste

Preparation 

Cut the sweet potatoes into juliennes, place them in a bowl and pour the teaspoon of coconut oil, along with a tablespoon of grated coconut, salt and a tablespoon of almond flour. Mix well.

Place in the oven (400 F) for 20 minutes. My recommendation is to keep checking and testing depending on the desired texture.

Ready!

I hope you enjoy them as much as we do, we are so addicted. It's definitely a healthy choice to substitute "french fries" with, and they go with everything!
