Parmesan Baked Sweet Potato Fries
Mmmm, you’re lookin’ at one of my all-time favorite indulgences, right there.
LOVE me some sweet potato fries!
I like to think of them as the American (or should I say, French?) equivalent of my beloved Mexican chips and salsa obsession. Why? Well they regularly steal the show from whatever main dish may be gracing my plate. They are the perfect salty and crispy treat, especially paired with a nice cool beverage. And I could easily make a meal just with them if given the opportunity. (Which I’ve, um, “never” done before…)
Actually, the last meal I made with these sweet potato fries ended up being a wildly delicious, healthier, vegetarian success. I was randomly craving a burger and fries. But being that I don’t really eat hamburger and wasn’t feeling like a batch of greasy restaurant-style white fries, I decided to whip up a simple alternative at home. I tossed one of my favorite black bean burgers in a sizzling skillet, cut up some sweet potatoes to bake up and tossed them with extra Parm and parsley afterwards, and then cracked open a cold IPA from a brewery just down the street. And it may have actually been one of my favorite burgers and fries night…ever.
Because once again, the sweet potato fries stole the show. :)
