INGREDIENTS

2-3 yams

3-4 egg whites

oregano

thyme

DIRECTIONS

 

Slice sweet potatoes (we did spears but you can do discs if you want)

Separate eggs and add seasonings (as much seasoning as you would like)  

Dip each sweet potato into the egg mixture and lay flat on a aluminum foil lined cookie sheet

Drizzle the potatoes with olive oil and sprinkle on more seasoning – this is key – and then sprinkle on a little sea salt.

For more crispy fries, turn the broiler on for about a minute

Enjoy!!
