Oven-baked sweet potato fries

Makes about 2 servings

1 good-sized Sweet Potato, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch thick wedges
2 egg whites
a pinch of salt
a pinch of garlic powder
a pinch of dried thyme
a pinch of dried oregano

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Spray a baking sheet with non-stick canola oil spray (use something that’s refined for high heat).

Microwave the sweet potato wedges for 1 minute 30 seconds. Stir them, and microwave for another minute. Then let them cool for 5 minutes.

Combine the salt, garlic powder, thyme and oregano, with the egg whites, and whisk until frothy. Dip the sweet pototo wedges into the egg mixture, and lay them on the baking sheet.

Bake for 10 minutes, then flip them over and bake for another 5 minutes, or until done.

Sweet Potatoes are a personal favourite because they are cheap, healthy, taste great and are one of the first foods we give to babies.

The above recipe is taken from a blog by a mother who says she has a challenge feeding her 3-yr-old.

Basically, this is a good meal for children in the toddler stage and even us grown-ups.

Try it out and let us know how it works out…
