Easy Sweet Potato Recipes

It’s a common joke in my family that I don’t eat anything that grew in the ground… that is until I discovered sweet potatoes!

Of course I started out eating them as fries, but it got me wondering how else these delicious veggies could be added to our meal plan and my mind was blown!

I found everything from sweet potato nachos and soup to salad and even sweet potato pancakes drizzled with marshmallow syrup!

Many of these recipes are also Whole30 and Paleo friendly too!
