How do you guys make your Baked and Sweet Potato's?

[BigD11]

Im going to start eating Sweet Potato's. How do you make them and what do you put of them? Also what is the best way to make a Baked Potato? In the microwave or Oven, and what do you put on them? Im trying to lose some weight. Im going to eat my baked after my workout.
Thanks

I microwave the sweet potatos then mash it up in a bowl for multiple servings, add some seasoning, lil milk, lil butter, u are good to go.

I just boil Sweet Potatos and eat them plain, since they're quite sweet.

I've not had any BP in years but have been meaning to have them, but what I would do is Microwave them and eat them with Cottage Cheese, Coleslaw and Butter.

seems like such a waste of energy, hope your using a toaster oven.

Ive found that the best way to cook is to steam them!

when ever I Microwaved them they alwise dried out, so I steam up enough for a week and keep them in a plastic container in the fridge with paper towels in the container to soak up the moisture.

i do one of two ways:
-microwave steamer, i chop them up into pieces and run em for 7-10 minutes at full power.
-wrapped in foil on the grill while i grill my sunday night 5-10 lbs of chicken.

Micro for 2-4 minutes depending on size, then bake for 15-25 minutes on 380-420, depending on how crispy you like the outside.

If you can't wait 15 mins, micro them a little more (not much), and put under the grill/broil to 'bake' the skin.

I usually put them in the microwave, then cut them in half and put some cottage cheese on them. Yesterday I mashed up a leftover baked sweet potato and put it in the microwave, then mixed in cottage cheese. Soooo good.

I poke a few holes in them, wrap them in foil and bake at 400 for about an hour.

For eating- I add some spray butter, cinnamon and sometimes a little fake sugar or vanilla yogurt (about a Tbsp or so).

[Sylvo]

wrap each one in some aluminum foil and slap them on the outdoor girll until they get soft and then put some cinammon on them and mash. Yum yum! They taste like dessert

[Ballistic_Brute]

clean em, microwave em, add a lil cinnamon and sweetner... boo-yah taste like pumpkin pie... yum

[RussianRocket4]

I cut mine into circles and bake them tastes like sweet chips and goes great with a nice breast or steak...chicken breast that is
