I do not know a single person who doesn’t like sweet potatoes. Okay, I do know one person like that but I’m 100% sure their dislike for sweet potatoes is imagined as they’ve never actually tried one. Imagine that?!
There is something so comforting and satisfying about sweet potatoes smothered in spices that most people find them completely irresistible. For me it was love at first bite. If you are a fan of these beautiful orange spuds too, you and your little one are in for a real treat today.
