Sweet Potatoes

Sweet potatoes are one of my favorite side dishes to make! I enjoy roasting them best. I like them thin and with a bit of crunch.

 My favorite recipe is to roast thin fry like slices at 425 degrees in coconut or olive oil with some Pink Himalayan Salt and Cracked Pepper for about 45 minutes. Stirring gently twice. They come out NICE and soft with a crunch and brown edges! 

OMG SO GOOD!

This is by far definitely one of my favorite veg. 

Even though it’s a high carb veg I make them often. They are are extremely beneficial to your body. Clean eats! 

• They are high in vitamin B6.
• They are a good source of vitamin C which helps produces collagen which helps maintain skin’s youthful elasticity, and is es essential o helping us cope with stress.
• They contain Vitamin D.
• They contain iron.
• They are a good source of magnesium which is the relaxation and anti-stress mineral. 
• They are a source of potassium. 
• They are low glycemic index! Meaning their natural sugars are slowly released into the bloodstream, helping to ensure a balanced and regular source of energy, without the blood sugar spikes linked to fatigue and weight gain.

And they are just sweet and tasty! 

Good stuff give them a try!

Baking Bacon

What did we do before Pinterest? I mean really!? How did we discover cool new things to try, arts and craft ideas and how to bake Bacon!!! For real Baking Bacon! 

WHY HAVEN'T I TRIED THIS BEFORE?

 I Love bacon but I ABHORE cooking it. It gets grease everywhere, it smells up the entire house, (that may or may not be a bad thing), and removing the grease from the pan is always a pain. When I saw this article from Center Cut Cook I thought my oven would be splashed with grease and it would cause my house to smoke up. But oh how I was wrong! It was the perfect way to cook bacon. NO MESS! NO FUSS! And like the Center Cut Cook said, you don't have to baby sit it!

Discover, the best way to make perfect bacon!

INGREDIENTS:

• Hormon Free, Antibiotic Free Sliced Bacon 
• Maple Syrup ( optional )

DIRECTIONS:

• Line a baking sheet with tin foil. Make a small rim on the edges of the foil.
• Arrange the bacon in single layers. 
• Place the tray of bacon in a cold oven. 
• After bacon is in the oven, turn oven to 400 degrees. Bake until the bacon is cooked to your preference. Around 20 minutes give or take.  Pending on how thick your bacon is, the time will vary. Thin bacon cooks faster than thick. 
• When the bacon is to your liking and crispy, place bacon on a paper towel lined plate and softly pat grease off. 
• WALLA!

To make an extra special batch of bacon, drizzle some maple syrup on the bacon before you cook it! OMG! To die for!
