Default Out of the Goodness of my Heart...

....I will share this recipe. It is a really good way to fix sweet potatoes.

Grilled Sweet Potatoes
Prep time: 20 minutes
Cook time: 10 minutes
Yield: Serves 4

Ingredients

2 pounds sweet potatoes
3-4 Tbsp olive oil
Kosher salt

Cilantro Lime Dressing

1/4 cup finely chopped fresh cilantro (including tender stems)
1 teaspoon of lime zest or lemon zest (or more)
2 tablespoons of fresh lime or lemon juice (or more)
1/4 cup olive oil
Pinch of salt

Method
1 Prepare your grill for hot, direct heat. While the grill is heating up, peel the sweet potatoes
and slice lengthwise, or on a diagonal, into 1/4 inch-thick pieces. Coat the sweet potato slices
with olive oil and lightly sprinkle with Kosher salt.

2 Make cilantro lime dressing: Combine all of the dressing ingredients into a small bowl.

3 Grill the sweet potatoes: Once the grill is hot, lay the sweet potato pieces down onto the grill
grates. Cover the grill and cook until each side gets some grill marks, between 3-6 minutes for each
side, depending on how hot your grill is.

4 Toss with dressing: Toss the sweet potatoes in a bowl with the dressing and serve hot.
