Just bake it. Cut it open and drizzle some margarine, butter, or olive oil on it.

Or, you can slice the potato very thin and bake them into chips. :-)

I eat sweet potatos baked with a little butter (actually smart balance spread), salt and cinnamon. It's heavenly. Sometimes I put a little Splenda on it also, but that may be overkill for some of you.

You can get the calorie and nutritional content per ounce of any vegetable at http://www.calorieking.com. Both regular and sweet potatoes are 26 calories per ounce. A 4-oz potato, which is about 100 calories, is about 5.5 inches long and 1.75 inches wide (at its widest point). You have to watch out for potatoes; the ones at my grocery store are gigantic--some of them weigh an entire pound! If you don't have a scale at home, most grocery stores have a scale in the produce section where you can weigh your potatoes before you buy them.

I recently started eating sweet potatoes and can't believe I wasted my whole life eating regular ones. I like the sweet potatoes so much better. Here is how I eat them:

• With 1-2 tbsp non-fat cream cheese, 1 tsp brown sugar, and 1 tsp cinnamon. Slice the baked potato open, put toppings on, then stick it back in the oven for a few minutes so everything gets melty.
• With 1-2 tsp chutney (I get a mint chutney from an Indian stand at my farmers' market, but any kind of chutney would work).
• Just by themselves, no seasonings at all.

For lunch today I had a sweet potato topped with Trader Joe's Tuna in Thai Green Curry Sauce and roasted cauliflower. It was way yummy! One of my best concoctions.

I bought a sweet potato today, cut it into wedges and grilled it........LOVED IT! Thank you for the suggestions........will definitely be eating this again!
