Sweet Potato Recipes You Won't Believe You've Never Tried

Sweet potatoes go way beyond being baked, topped with marshmallows, or labeled as a "holiday only" treat. I like to think of them as a blank canvas ready to be adorned with amazing flavor combinations. You can stuff, shred, cut, fry, grill, and even roast these mildly sweet tubers for recipes ranging from sweet to savory. Here are nine mouthwatering sweet potato recipes you won't believe you've never tried. I'm fairly certain they will be become new family favorites!
