I prefer mine virgin with just a little butter. I always bake extras because I also love them sliced with the peel, cold out of the refrigerator.

I never even thought of a salad this looks really yummy. I think I'm making it today thanks :-)

I love to bake them and just eat them with butter, salt and pepper. Or I make them into baked chips. Eat them all year long. I have always hated rutabagas (mostly in boiled dinner) but a friend mashed them last year and they were very good so I am going to try them this year.

I love baked sweet potatoes. After they are baked, I slice them and sprinkle with either pumpkin pie spice or cinnamon, add some brown sugar and butter. Very tasty.

I peel them and cut them into cubes or sticks and put them in a medium warm skillet with canola oil and a generous amount of Emeril essence Stir often they brown well and are so good. Even good the next day.

I like ti just bake them, the same as a reg white one. It brings out the l sweetness.

I like to roast them. I peel and cut into large cubes or wedges, toss with lightly with Canola oil. Put onto a baking sheet and bake at 350F until tender roughly 45 minutes depending on size cut, stirring a couple of times. I serve them with sour cream, if desired.

This is just a basic recipe, the spices/herbs can change. The baking time and temp is adjustable if you are using the oven for other things. I also add cubed/wedged potatoes (not peeled), carrots and onions (onions are added towards the end so they do not burn).

Okay, to be honest, I do not often toss in oil. I spray the pan with a pan release (such as Pam) and spray the veg and good to go.
