Sunday was mini iron chef day. My task: use sweet potatoes. Make dinner.

Pile-o-Nommyness (word, yes?) |
I found a great recipe in the Moosewood Cookbook for a Caribbean Sweet Potato Casserole.
Basically you slice the sweet potatoes length wise and very thin.
|
seriously slicing the sweet potatoes |
layer them with black beans and rice in a casserole dish. Cover them with coconut milk, season with thyme, cilantro, lime juice and a bit of red pepper. Then make a cornmeal crumble topper with the same spices and a bit of oil.
|
I forgot the cornmeal and used oatmeal instead.
Don't do that. Stick with the cornmeal.
Trust me on this one! |
Bake for about an hour at 350. Sooo easy!

TahDah! |
Also, FYI, Sweet Potatoes are one of the most nutritious veggies you can eat. See this link:
