On the 5th Day of Fitmas, Coach Wendy gave to me:
- 5 gold star jumps
- 4 killer push-ups
- 30 second wall sit
- 2 awesome burpees
- and a 1 minute holiday plank
Growing up I always looked forward to sweet potato casserole at every holiday meal! You know the one made with like a gallon of syrup, brown sugar and topped with marshmallows! It’s really kinda sad that we cover up a naturally sweet, delicious, and nutritious thing like a sweet potato with sugar! I now make this version of sweet potatoes all the time and when I bring them to a get together people rave about them. They don’t even miss that casserole.
Roasted Sweet Potatoes:
- 3-4 sweet potatoes, washed, peeled and cubed
- 1 Tbsp coconut oil
- cinnamon
Toss cubed sweet potatoes, oil and cinnamon. Cook at 400 degrees on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper for about 45 minutes or until the potatoes are soft. I will stir them a couple times while they are cooking.
These make a delicious side dish and I will use any left overs in a yummy breakfast hash.
Enjoy!
