You start with your sweet potatoes and wash and scrub them.
Then I microwave mine for a few minutes. This makes them slightly soft enough to cut.
Then you slice them into wedges. (I leave the skin on for extra nutrients, some prefer to peel them)
I toss them into a big container and sprinkle cinnamon on and cover it and shake it up!
Then spread onto a sprayed cookie sheet.
And bake for about 30 minutes or so until tender and yummy!
They make a great snack. I bag them and weight them and write the points plus value right on the bag! I like to eat them cold after a workout :)
Oh ya and bonus? Peanut loves em too ;)
How do you like to make sweet potatoes?

I'll be honest - not a big fan of sweet potatoes... that was until I tried sweet potato wedges.
I don't, however, eat them sweet. I use them in place of tator wedges or fries. Cook them in the oven with a bit of Pam cooking spray and some seasonings. :)
My favourite way to eat them is to peel them, slice into thick slices, brush with olive oil and chilli powder (just a little for me, I am a wimp) then bake.
Sweet potato wedges are one of our favorites! Quick and easy. I also make a sweet potato casserol. Peel sweet potatoes, mash in big bowl, add a little seasoning, pour in casserol dish, top with cinnamon and finely chopped nuts. Pooh loves it.
This sounds delicious. I also like them mashed with some blue cheese.
I usually bake wedges with a splash of canola oil and sea salt with either thyme or chili powder.:)
Love sweet potatoes!!
I've made them just as you did minus the cinnamon (I should try that though). I also like to cube them up and just toss them into a dish and microwave. That's why I love sweet potatoes, cuz their sweet and you don't need to add anything to them for them to taste great!
Mmmmm...that sounds so good!! I think I would love to try this recipe. One of my favorite ways to eat sweet potatoes is as a baked potato but cooked in the crockpot. I just wrap it in foil and cook it in the crockpot for 4-8 hours and then eat it like that. Last time I cooked them I didn't put anything on them and they were delicious!
