positive enough, we failed to do much the day prior to this, but it changed into a pleasing day to relax at home.

cooking spray
salt & pepper to taste

I think it took about 10 mins for mine. flip every piece over, and placed the sheet back beneath the broiler. whilst you may scent the sweet potato goodness, and that they look like this, they're completed:
Pile them all on a plate and devour them. proportion them with a person, due to the fact this is probably as a minimum two servings. I ate the complete batch for about 280 energy, which was definitely really worth it. these flavor similar to sweet potato fries, however they're a lot less difficult to make--they prepare dinner greater calmly, they do not stick with the baking sheet, and that they take less time typical.
