    Thanks Maggie, yeah they are apparently much lower in carbs and low GI so a good substitute for normal potato from time to time...or you can do both! Lol

    And hope you enjoy then Gabriella...the sesame, ginger and orange juice compliment the flavour of the sweet potato really well....this was a hand me down from a friend too so I am happy to share! :)
