Happy Monday, Slow Cookerers!!

Let's talk sweet potatoes.

we eat A LOT of them in my family. I've got three kids, and while they are pretty much the best kids in the history of the universe (except for the ones in YOUR house, of course.... ;-)  )

getting them to eat vegetables can sometimes be a bit of a challenge.

This is why I love sweet potatoes so much.

The natural flavor is so delicious all on it's own, there is really no reason to drown them in lots of sauces or seasonings or cheese or sugar.

Also? Since it's a hearty root, it really stands up nicely in the slow cooker.

Here are some of our most favorite Sweet Potato recipes.

(this sort of contradicts my assertion up above that you don't need to douse with sugar....)

but whatever. These are darn good and belong on your Thanksgiving day table!

Savory -- this recipe is super sophisticated and has chipotle chili powder and gruyere.

yum.

sweet and crunchy -- I've been known to eat this for breakfast, cold, right out of the Tupperware container!
