Growing up, I did not like sweet potatoes. The only way I had ever eaten them was at Thanksgiving in my grandmother’s sweet potato casserole. The whole idea of it was disgusting to me, and even into adulthood I avoided them. Then, one time I tried a savory sweet potato! It was just roasted sweet potato with simple seasonings, and it was life changing. Thankfully, that helped me realize that there are lots of different ways to eat sweet potatoes other than that traditional Thanksgiving version. (But if you like that recipe, I’ve shared my version of it!) You can make baked goods, salads, and even smoothies from sweet potatoes! Here are 21 ways to eat sweet potatoes.
