I am going to make the following, It's a Weight Watchers recipe, you could use regular sugar and sweetened pineapples if you don't want low fat/calories

POINTS® Value: 2
Servings: 6
Preparation Time: 10 min
Cooking Time: 45 min
Level of Difficulty: Easy

Canned pineapple replaces the need for a lot of sweetener in this tropical version of candied sweet potatoes. And the juice has a caramelizing-like effect imparting great flavor and texture.


Ingredients

1 sprays cooking spray
1 1/2 pound sweet potato(es), peeled and cut into 1-inch chunks
8 oz canned crushed pineapple in juice, undrained
1 Tbsp McNeil Nutritionals SPLENDA No Calorie Sweetener
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
Instructions

Preheat oven to 425ºF. Coat a 2-quart casserole dish with cooking spray.


Place potatoes in prepared dish. In a small bowl, combine crushed pineapple, Splenda and cinnamon; add to potatoes and toss until well mixed.


Bake, stirring after 30 minutes, until sweet potato mixture is bubbly, about 45 minutes. Yields about 1/2 cup per serving.
Notes

You can use canned sweet potatoes in water to save time if you prefer.

I fix fried sweet potatoes. All you do is:
peel your sweet potatoes (about 4 large) they will cook down
cut into thin slices
put 1 stick butter in frying pan
add your sweet potatoes
sprinkle about 1 to 1and half cups of light brown sugar on top
cook on med heat until potatoes are tender
stirring occasionally.
I usually start with about 1cup of sugar and add as I need to. When the potatoes are done you will have a syrupy coating on them, so as they cook you will know if you need more brown sugar. (if they start getting dry, add some)

Try a sweet potaoe casserole. Good stuff.

I have a great sweet potato cobbler recipe and its easy. It uses a yellow cake mix as the topping and you use red and white sweet potatoes. PM me and I'll send it to you.

I need recipe(s) for sweet potatoes. Other than a pie. for tomorrow. looking for something different but sweet.
