Tip

Cutting Green Onions

I recently tried a recipe that called for 3/4 cup green onions. Instead of using a knife, I found that snipping the onions with a pair of kitchen scissors took only a few seconds. —Kristy B., Kelowna, British Columbia

Simple recipe and tasted delicious!

I have made this twice now, and my kids, both of whom complain when I make them eat sweet potatoes, eat these with little if any complaint. My husband who isn't thrilled with sweet potatoes, eats them like candy. I will say that I used Wegman's basting oil, which is a grapeseed/canola oil blend seasoned with thyme, parsley and garlic, instead of canola oil. As is, they are delicious even without the dipping sauce.
