One of the
greatest food discoveries I have made in Philadelphia is Whole Foods’s “Six
Dollar Box”. For six dollars, Whole Foods will let you pick a meat and two
sides from the deli counter. Due to my diet, this is a great way for me to be
able to go out to eat delicious, good quality food with friends on the cheap.
My favorite side at Whole Foods is definitely the Cajun Sweet Potato fries. They
are AMAZING! My only problem with them was that they are a tad too spicy for
me. So of course I needed to find a way to make them at home so they will be
just right (and I can have them all the time). After some experimenting, I
think I’ve figured it out. Here’s the secret:
Ingredients
7 medium
sweet potatoes – I got mine at Trader Joe’s in a bag
2 tablespoons
olive oil
1 teaspoon Cajun spice (or more if you like it really spicy! Can be found in most spice sections)
3 packets of
Wawa hot sauce (or about 3 tablespoons of another brand)
Directions
1. Preheat
the oven for 400 degrees.
2. Wash the
potatoes
3.Cut into pieces
- here I experimented with round, cube,
fry shaped etc.
4. Stir everything together.
5. Bake in
the oven for 50 minutes, stirring halfway through. In order to make sure it's cooked, poke them with a fork...or taste test!
Serving Size: One potato (or about 160g)
Calories per
serving: 145 calories
Makes seven
servings and keeps well for about a week in the refrigerator, which makes them
a great food to have around when you’re in a rush. These were great for my lightweight diet, with required that I have 200g of sweet potato for my dinner. The spice on the sweet potatoes amped up my meal from super boring to something normal people would eat!
Any nutrition
expert will tell you that sweet potatoes are considered a superfood – good
source of vitamin C and magnesium, sources of iron, magnesium and Vitamin D.
They are also high in carotenoids, which help ward off cancer. This recipe has
all of those things, plus a spicy kick!
Um...these sound amazing :) Hope everything is going well Tory!!! Miss you and our chit chats before and after class. Hope training is going well :)
ReplyDeleteI have being on blog Sites for a while now and today I felt like I should share my story because I was a victim too. I had HIV for 6 years and i never thought I would ever get a cure I had and this made it impossible for me to get married to the man I was supposed to get married to even after 2 years of relationship he broke up with me when he finds out I was HIV positive. So I got to know about Dr. Itua on Blog Site who treated someone and the person shared a story of how she got a cured and let her contact details, I contacted Dr. Itua and he actually confirmed it and I decided to give a try too and use his herbal medicine that was how my burden ended completely.
