These are so yummy I almost can't believe they're the healthiest food ever! Sweet potatoes are SO good for you, and this is such a better way to prepare them than coating them with butter, sugar, or marshmallows. These make a great late-night snack, and they don't take very long to prepare at all. They look a little like carrot sticks when they're all cut up, but once they're cooked, their color and flavor get so much richer. Leave the skins on if you want less color, more fiber.
