Red Mango

Spring is in the air.

I swear all of Chicago was out and about toady.

It is absolutely marvelous!

In celebration of the fantastic weather I treated myself to some frozen yogurt at Red Mango located in Lakeview.

I had the original with chocolate chips with almonds. Yummm! Their frozen yogurt is very tangy, but good! I think I will have to go back and try all their flavors!

Sweet Potato Home Fries

I love sweet potatoes.

Have I told you this already?

Well if not, I do. I am consistently trying to find new ways to cook sweet potatoes.

I found a winner folks.

I was inspired by Paula Deen's Sweet Potato Home Fries Recipe.

Of course, I did modify it, as I do with most recipes, but it is great starting point. You do what you want with it, but I added a dash of salt, pepper, cinnamon, cumin and paprika when the sweet potatoes are in the oil and then when you take them out to drain on paper towel I sprinkled them with a little sugar.

They are just too yummy!
