I love sweet potato fries for two reasons. First, they are sweet and delicious!!! (Always a good thing!!) And secondly, they have fewer calories since they are baked and not fried. If I have a regular french fry ala Micky-D's, all I taste is the oil and salt. Try these great fries, with a touch of Parmesan cheese.
