Slight change of plans from the weekly menu plan!  Originally these were going to be Black Bean Tacos but I couldn't resist the big fat pre-cooked sweet potatoes sitting in my fridge!  So I took the same idea BUT swapped sweet potatoes for the taco shells and let me tell you...

As much as I love to cook, I'd be lying if I said I that I am always in the mood to cook.  On the other hand, I could count on one hand the seldom times in my life when I have not been in the mood to eat!  So what's a girl to do when she is in the mood to eat, but necessarily in the mood to cook? 

Are you looking for a warm, nutritious, comforting meal that will knock your socks off??  Well, my friends... look no further because this is the one!

I saw this recipe over at Karina's Kitchen (a gluten-free blog), and loved it so much I made it twice in one week. Yep.  Twice.

I think I've mentioned it before but that won't stop me from saying it again, "I love fries".  Love em'!

What's not to love? Seriously, you tell me because I can't think of one thing.  

I also love sweet potatoes (what can I say, I just love food)... so needless to say, these fries really do it for me; they're the best of both worlds.

Finally, finally... my second "101" video! 

I have began to realize that a huge obstacle that stands in the way of people cooking nutritious, d'lishes meals for themselves is that they simply don't know how to select, store, and prepare the ingredients!

Talk about a feel good food.  Roasted roots satisfy on so many different levels.  They are warm, sweet, salty, savory, hearty and so, so satisfying.  This is one dish where you think to your self, "Could something so simple and d'lishess really be SO good for me?"

And the answer is Yes!  Yes. Yes. Yes. And yes!
