Sweet Potato Homefries
coconut oil, butter or ghee sweet potatoes, peeled cinnamon (optional) Shred sweet potato and saute in oil for about 10 mins or until cooked to your liking. ________________________________________________________________________ SIDE NOTES: ~ I just love when simplicity is this good 🙂 ~ We enjoy this for breakfast along side eggs (instead of toast).
