Sweet Potato

I love that microwave sweet potatoes are so versatile. You can serve them plain or add toppings and seasonings to make them more interesting.

I love boiling sweet potatoes because it’s easier than roasting them. Also, it’s the perfect technique if we don’t have a microwave or can’t use our oven.

Using just a few simple ingredients that you probably already have in your pantry, you can whip up this delicious black folks sweet potato pie!

Patti Labelle’s sweet potato pie is a great recipe since it’s a signature dish made with warm spices, half and half, sweet butter, and flavorful Louisiana yams.
