I've always been a regular white potato gal (and still am), and never got into sweet potatoes - baked they seemed dry and boiled/steamed seemed to take forever and end up not so tasty.....until I tried sweet potatoes this way. Try it - you'll love them!
I recently discovered that there is a better way to cook them in order to make them creamier and more flavorful (without any added ingredients or condiments). It’s very simple – just throw them in the crock pot!
After you rinse and scrub the outsides of them, just use a fork to poke some holes in them and put them straight into the crock pot. There’s no need to dry them – the liquid leftover on the potatoes from rinsing is all the liquid they’ll need. Then set the crock pot to low and cook for 6-7 hours (for 4 potatoes at a time). If you need your potatoes sooner, you can also throw them in the crock pot on high for about 3 hours. You should end up with perfect sweet potatoes with basically no effort required.
That's all!
Enjoy!
One small sweet potato has 262% of the daily value of vitamin A and 29% of the daily value of vitamin C. Sweet potatoes also have twice as much fiber as regular potatoes.
