Sweet Potato Fries

This recipe is for about 2 servings (see note at bottom of recipe)

1 Small Sweet Potato
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
Ground Cayenne Pepper
Garlic Powder
Sea Salt and Pepper to taste
——

Preheat oven to 350°. Peel sweet potato and slice in half across the middle (so you now have 2 pieces half a long as the original sweet potato) and then slice each half into 12 wedges. In a bowl place your sweet potato wedges and add olive oil.  Mix to coat the wedges. Add Sea Salt, Pepper, Garlic Powder and Cayenne Pepper… mix well to coat all wedges with spices.

Cover a cookie sheet with parchment paper and spread the wedges into a single layer on the paper.

Bake in oven uncovered for about 20 minutes… turn wedges after 10 minutes and watch that they don’t burn (ovens vary on this) cook until golden brown.

NOTE: The size of Sweet Potatoes varies so much that the exchanges may be way off.. the best way to calculate is 1 starch for 1/3 cup serving.  Goes great with a side of Ketchup
